The Ocarina of Time remake on Switch 2 has sold 5.2 million units in 4 days

As impressive as the number is, it’s fair to say we aren’t all that surprised. The Switch 2 remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time was undoubtedly the second-most anticipated release of November, right behind Grand Theft Auto 6.

Its critical acclaim is well established: it has been met with outstanding scores from both the gaming press (96/100 on Metacritic) and players (9.6/10). Its commercial success, while entirely expected, has just been confirmed: over 5.2 million copies sold in just 4 days.

In a press release, the studio stated:

"The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time for Nintendo Switch 2 sold more than 5.2 million copies worldwide (including 810,000 in Japan) during the first four days following its launch on November 5, 2026. This marks the highest global sales ever recorded for a Nintendo Switch 2 game published by Nintendo during its first four days on the market."

With such an impressive feat in its first week of release, it’s hard to imagine that the title won’t be nominated in numerous categories at the annual video game awards ceremonies.

Do you think The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time will be nominated in several categories at annual video game awards ceremonies, such as The Game Awards?
