The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D was the top-selling game in US retail, analyst company NPD Group has revealed.
Second and third places were Evolve and Dyling Light respectively. The latter was expected as Dying Light launched in January, but Evolve's place as number two might be somewhat surprising as it's both a brand new game (as opposed to a remake) and available on multiple platforms. Then again, Majora's Mask has a huge cult following and it launched alongside the fancy New Nintendo 3DS.
Nintendo's other big 3DS-exclusive, Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, didn't fare so well, though it did barely crack the top 10 at tenth place. That's still an improvement for a series that's long struggled to gain any traction in the west, despite it being an essential title, according to Dan Pearson. Listen to Dan Pearson.
