Die Zelda! Die!
No, we only know for Japan and for UK (at least, for separate weeks). It typically goes before 70-30 and 85-15, I think one time it was higher in the UK due to Switch shortages right after launch (the second week of sales tracking).
This is so fucking hilarious if you know nothing about German lol
I have never seen a copy of Zelda on store shelves.

GTA V still charting, amazing.
This is also very true
It's not going to stop, either. It gets sold as a natural first game purchase for a majority of new PS4 and XB1 purchases. It will chart until GTAVI eventually arrives (if it does this gen, can't say what would happen if a new gen started before GTAVI arrived).

And it STILL gets new content, even, just last week I think.
Great results for Zelda and Horizon. Horizon was probably the best selling sku since the WiiU probably is a not to small part of Zelda. Both Horizon and Zelda were also sold out all the time.
And that both of them beat Wildlands should mean they both sold really really well, Germany typically loves Ubisoftgame.
Hard to say about Mass Effect with only 2 weeks. And Nier is not bad considering these are monthly charts.

It's such an achievement for a new IP to compete with a 20+ year franchise. Guerrilla deserves it for such an amazing game.
I'll be honest, even though Nintendo is pretty popular here (the amount of time even a total failure like the WiiU managed to stay ahead of the Xbox One can only be described as "embarassing" for Microsoft) and Zelda got that new console launch boost I was still sure Horizon would beat it.
Well deserved tho, they outdid themselves with BOTW.

Are we reading the same chart? I'm reading Horizon Zero Dawn came second, second. That doesn't sound like a great achievement.

Breh operative word is compete not beat.
Being first wouldn't be a great achievement if there weren't stiff competition, either. There was, though, in Zelda, and Horizon still beat big games like Ghost Recon and Andromeda, so that definitely is a great achievement for Horizon.
That's funny.
Google search: define compete
Compete: Strive to gain or win something by defeating or establishing superiority over others.

I wanna say I'm surprised at this spin but I mean two years here nd it's expected what a shame(unless you're being sarcastic nd this is a meme)
Anyway gratz to Zelda and horizon I still gotta play Zelda but I mean I've heard enough and seen enough to know it'll be amazing once I do
Operative words: strive to
It's funny. Even winning first place in sales and being a WW smash hit some Zelda fans can't help being salty about HZD any time something nice is said about it.
Just weird.
You're right, Horizon was a failure, Guerrilla should go back to making dudebro shooters with bald space marine protagonists tbh.

Deserved.
So if you go to the Olympics and win a silver medal you didn't actually compete?
Hoho for breakfast

Figures. I think it was just yesterday someone posted the top selling games from Amazon.com so far for the year and Zelda (Switch) was number one. Horizon Zero Dawn was right behind and then Mario Kart 8 (Switch) was 3rd, and Zelda (Wii U) is 4th.

A legend is a legend.
That's pretty impressive for Zelda given its platform challenges.
I just assume that all the Germans bought it on Steam
Hahahaha this is the funniest thing I've heard all day.
Zelda came first, horizon came second. I was pointing it out to the guy that was spinning it as though it was a great achievement that Horizon came second because he was comparing it to Zelda.
It's no big deal for me if horizon came first, that means it really did great especially against Zelda.
Search my post history if you like about me apparently being salty about horizon since I've never really talked about the game.
I don't see how it's spin when one has far, far more customers that are able to actually buy it.

All dude said was that it was an achievement for horizon to be able to compete against a longstanding franchise that's it. That's all. He ain't say nothing bad about either title he didn't say it in a way it seemed like a console war starting post. It was a simple o cool.
You ppl
Like seriously

What is going on in this thread? I thought the Horizon vs Zelda battles were over and we had moved on.
LOL, so naive.
