That is a more meaningful comparison, its the sales on all platforms combined which matters, not of individual versions. When we break down sales by platform basis, an exclusive always has an advantage, and a multiplat will have a disadvantage due to sales being split across multiple versions.

Nevertheless, in the weekly software chart, games are split into SKUs.



Hey, you forgot littlebigplanet 3! I vote LBP3.

Jk.



Pokemon. Will be interesting to see if GTAV can outsell it though (combined).

In which case Pokemon should be split too :o

Maybe, but that data probably isn't provided by trackers outside of Japan.



My money's on Pokémon... But it'll definitely be a close week. Wish Dragon Age was releasing at a different time so it could do better...



There's a new Pokemon? Didn't one just get released?



I went with Pokémon because GTA is a port and you also separated the different console releases for it. If you combined PS4 and XBO then it would be closer, but I still think OR/AS would edge it out.

Smash will not do as well as many people blindly hope, but I doubt it'll do worse than Dragon Age.

X/Y was released last October. Third gen remakes coming out this November (they originally released 12 years ago). It's consistent with the regular schedule, for instance Pokemon Platinum released in Sep 2008 and the second gen remakes released in Sep 2009.

But you already knew all of that, didn't you.
