Zelda is the most talked about game on social media (12–14th June 2016). The game was mentioned over 75.000 times*, more than the up-comers Battlefield 1 and God of War.

* Based on 10% sample of overall conversation.

Holy shit it's not even close. Well deserved imo though. Game looks amazing

Newtype-001 · Jun 15, 2016

Too right.
Winner

Plinko · Jun 15, 2016

Crash Bandicoot at 7th, yet we still can't get a new game. The market is there, people.

DarthButcher · Jun 15, 2016

That looks like a chart of international military spending.

DNAbro · Jun 15, 2016

Deserved. Game looks astounding.

Kathian · Jun 15, 2016

Treehouse did the same thing last year. What happens when your sitting Live for people to wander in at any time and just giving out info throughout the day.

Splatoon hype was basically born there.

cw_sasuke · Jun 15, 2016

Expected and deserved.

RPGamer92 · Jun 15, 2016

Makes sense when Nintendo fans have nothing else to talk about.

Maxrunner · Jun 15, 2016

In a perfect world the next games should be the pirates one from Rare and The last Guardian....

Didn't know there were more Nintendo fans than Sony, Microsoft and PC platform fans combined, damn

Duxxy3 · Jun 15, 2016

So far it's my favorite thing at E3.

I have faith. Remaster to get the team used to the concept, new game after.

PhazonBlazer · Jun 15, 2016

Easily game of the show

Steejee · Jun 15, 2016

Treehouse is probably the best thing anyone has come up with for E3 in the last few years.

Konomori · Jun 15, 2016

Nintendo is a big Company and except Pokemon, it is the only Game they have shown.
It also was 5 hours of Gameplay so more than any other.
And of course, it looks Amazing.

Welp, here it is.

I'm kinda surprised Horizon Zero Dawn isn't higher. Strange.

JimJamJones · Jun 15, 2016

Kouriozan · Jun 15, 2016

A mainline Zelda game that plays like no other, plus the divisive fanbase being even more divisive could explain it.
What's sure is that Aonuma didn't lie about breaking the conventions.

Is the reasoning here that there are more Nintendo fans than anything else

Because we know that's not true

sixteen-bit · Jun 15, 2016

Congrats on the viral hype. Would this game have potential to be the best selling WiiU game? Splatoon will be hard to top.

axisofweevils · Jun 15, 2016

Hopefully people will stop saying "Nintendo needs to be on stage to get attention" now. Also, the youtube trailer has been watched 3 million times so far.

Billions of Nintendo fans have no gamez.

To be honest, it's probably the only non-gun game with decent footage.

Newtype-001 · Jun 15, 2016

Actually kinda surprised Horizon isnt very high.

moolamb · Jun 15, 2016

What's the data source?

This smells to me like dodgy statistics. Grouping of terms etc. And why are there two Final Fantasy XV?

I love Zelda but let's not get carried away.

ieptbarakat · Jun 15, 2016

Considering they banked their entire E3 presence on this, it would be sad if it wasn't.

Its a Guerilla Games game.....and i don't really trust them.....we all know they can do realistic graphics....

James Scott · Jun 15, 2016

It was pretty hype. The game demoed very well and there was a ton to talk about.

But i have a feeling that it's not only because of that. Game of the show. Not less, not more.

Some people tweet is as Final Fantasy XV and others as Final Fantasy 15. The same thing happens with Star Wars: Battlefront and Star Wars Battlefront.

Crayolan · Jun 15, 2016

That's a surprisingly big lead. Wow.

Simbabbad · Jun 15, 2016

Looks like their strategy wasn't that silly after all.

Impossible, the game will come out on NX simultaneously

Falcs · Jun 15, 2016

Two Final Fantasy 15's??

Are people divisive about it though? I've pretty much only seen people being positive torwards it, barring the odd comment here and there.

Newtype-001 said:

Yeah same. That was my game of the show before seeing the new Zelda.

makingmusic476 · Jun 15, 2016

Deserved. Looks fantastic.

March of the Crabs · Jun 15, 2016

Well deserved. Best game at E3.

sunshine and gasoline · Jun 15, 2016

Zelda was fantastic and different in ways that was bound to get gamers talking. It being the most talked about game is expected.

J@hranimo said:

Same here, what we saw was pretty damn impressive.

J@hranimo · Jun 15, 2016

Nah, NX version will exist.

Maxrunner said:

I don't know much about Sony studios and their track record besides Naughty Dog and Insomniac, but this game looks pretty and has interesting enough gameplay. Can't be bad.

komplanen · Jun 15, 2016

Other than the Wii U version looking real nasty, the gameplay alone is worth all this talk. Day 1 on NX, assuming NX is any good.

Meesh · Jun 15, 2016

Welp, there certainly is a lot to talk about this time around. It's hype!!!

DarknessTear · Jun 15, 2016

Should probably stack those FFXV numbers.

Bubaer · Jun 15, 2016

Hmm, Star Wars Battlefront is mentioned twice, once with the : and once without.

CLBridges · Jun 15, 2016

If that's accurate then I can dig it. The footage I saw looks real good and fun. Haven't played an LoZ since Twilight Princess but looking forward to this one.

Thanks. It looks like a lot of effort into the analysis, but I guess it's purely based on twitter data? I'm just skeptical of these metrics. Because Nintendo only presenting one game means all their usual mentions will be grouped into this one game. So it's not really an indicator of the game's actual impact, but rather the method of data gathering being biased to Nintendo's format.

If all DLC came tied to $13 figurines, I'd consider all DLC to be free
