Is there a rough estimate on how many of these were from bundling?


At the moment just GT5 academy edition is bundled in Europe with UC3, 300 euros PS3 500gb. Since Academy Edition shipped 190k, one can guess maybe 80-90k of those were bundles or must likely less.

Yeah I think 12 million is possible, definetly.

If you count all the versions then actual sales of GT5 are 9.19 million, just 810k more for 10 million.

Cheers for the reply, I'm curious though roughly of the total number LTD not just of GT5 Academy edition.

Quite an achievement regardless.

GT5 was bundled when it was released like every other game. I remember GT5 kept his full price long after release, the only other game who did this was COD. Sales really picked up when platinum version was released last year. So we cant guess how many bundles sony shipped when GT5 was released.

not much, the 7.4 million they had on the site had been as of december 2011, so this has sold 1.5 million from the start of the year, the bundling started about a month ago, so no way it wuold have sold a considerable amount of that 1.5 million

Edit : actually, most likely none of them, as the numbers are as sep 2012. and the bundles started selling in oct

Shipped, including all the ones sent out for bundles now available and the supply required if the game to take it through the holidays and beyond. But likely undertracked by a few hundred k or so I reckon. I'd expect the next update of shipments to be very small unless heavy bundling continues.


nice try, but this is as of september. the bundles started in octobor. and for a game that has been released for almost 3 years now they wont over ship or anything, its most probably undertracked by about 900k
