GTA Vi on PS4.

I mean, PS360 hardware install bases were ~50/50 and PS3 version of V sold 20M alone. PS4 is the more popular console this gen, it could take 2/3th of all GTA VI sales.

Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

PS4 and to some extent Xbox One has so much diverse gaming lineup that it will never be possible in these two systems.

Do you guys think that a console has to be sold at least 50 - 60mil before a game sells 30mil ?

Topic: Yes it would only work on Nintendo consoles ( definetly not on wii u or 3ds) since their games releases 1 every generation (most), and games like Nintendo land is still bundled from the very beginning. And people are saying that this gen will be much quicker than the last ( new technology have been improving and releasing every year )

Pocky Lover Boy!

Half Life 3 on the Playbox U

In all seriousness, GTA VI would be my best bet

Not going to happen even if one consol reaches 100 mil sales. I's say 18 mil tops for the biggest selling game on a consl this gen

statements like these blow my mind simply because we're on a sales site. i don't want to sound like an asshole, but how can you actually think 18 million is the highest any game will sell when ps3 will have a 20 million seller on a much smaller install base than what ps4 will have and when ps4 sells software much better than ps3 ever did.

His statement really shouldn't blow your mind. Do you want to know how many times a Playstation consoles has had over 18 million sales on a game... Twice... Twice out of 1000s of titles released. Xbox consoles have achieved this once, but lets be honest here... It was Kinect Adventures. Then there's Nintendo, but bundles certainly helped push most of those games. So, honestly... His sales prediction is quite reasonable.

Current gaming platforms - Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Wii U, New 3DS, PC

No way, GTA VI may sell 30 million combined but definitely not on 1 console

No game will reach 30 million units sold on a single console. Nintendo games managed to do this since all 30 million+ selling Nintendo games have been heavily bundled.
