You know how rare it is for a game to actually get 1 m+ first week right? It only happens like once or twice a year if we're lucky.

So no, no sane people expected 1m+ first week.

Odd. I could have sworn there were more than 2 games that sold 1M first week in 2008.

GTA IV 360 - 3.4M 

SSB Brawl - 2.8M

GTA IV Ps3 - 2.5M

Mario Kart - 2.4M

Gears 2 - 2.1M

MGS 4 - 1.7M

Wii Fit - 1.4M (Japan launch was in 07)

 

I'm sure I'm missing some, and I'm not even counting multiplats.

And in 07, there were even more.

I'm guessing that the average over 5 years, would be 1 1M+ seller first week a month.

 

 

 

 

Oh, you meant worldwide.

It's still not very common for new IPs to pop up and sell 1 m+.
