it is definitely expected that the trend will continue upward, and the sales will keep getting better. Well, it’s no surprise if a sequel sells better than its previous installment, as people are always excited about one.

And on the other hand, this game is part of a franchise that has a huge fan following. Nintendo is no stranger to huge sales numbers either. Nintendo games often end up breaking sales records and selling way more copies than anyone expects them to. The big reason for this kind of fan base is the gameplay of their games. Nintendo is known for making fun games first and then worrying about their visuals and length.

The unmatched sales of its games are evident in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. This game sold over 10 million copies in its launch weekend. Even though the games were not very visually appealing and riddled with issues, they still sold and were appreciated by the community for their sheer fun quotient.

Fans are expecting Tears of the Kingdom to fall in a similar category; besides, it’s even looking very good.
