Different tracking services have different cumulative totals for Zelda, but the main difference in the surveys is in Zelda's first week. Dengeki and Famitsu say that Zelda sold 300,000 units in the period between 12/9 and 12/15, while Media-Create records it as 400,000. Therefore, Media Create has the total at about 700,000, while Famitsu and Dengeki have the total at less than 600,000. It's quite a difference.
Anyway, I worried about how fast Zelda dropped off from the holiday season. It needs to have a longer sales window if it is going to make a run for the million mark.
