It's also on every platform, including the Switch, while TotK is just on the Switch.
Yeah this feels like a Look What They Have to Do (release on every system) to Mimic a Fraction of Our Power (be Zelda) meme.
More like: Even a bland game will sell more if it is released on multiple platforms, no matter how good the other game is.
I think you just nailed it, this is exactly why.
Yep it's an unfair comparison. If Zelda was available on all platforms then it might have been a different story.
But it isn't, and that is the problem.
