whatever said: Shipped vs. sold can describe some discrepancies, but not this one. 1 million shipped vs. 250 sold. Sorry, but there is no chance that 750k are in stores vs. 250k in customers hands. My guess would be about 750k sold with 1 million shipped. |
Motorstorm 1 sold quite a bit, it's not too much of a stretch that retailers overestimated demand on the sequel. If anyone has the time to do it, check retailers to see if it has been discounted already or not - that'd be an insight into the situation. If it is not discounted, it might indicate VGC has been undertracking it. If it is discounted, it might indicate retailers have excess stock.
