To the best of my knowledge, the 300K figure quoted by IR included European orders from Nintendo who published the title on our behalf in that territory. Nor did it do the volume it did do at anywhere near frontline pricing (in the US anyway). And what you think was a cheap game to make, wasn't. Great games almost never are.[QUOTE/] Well that explains that. Someone replied with VGChartz figures, will be interesting to see what he says about us here at VGC lol. |
It's no secret Sven doesn't like VGChartz. He may call false on us by default, even without knowing the sales figures or when sales figures are correct.
That said, I think Zack & Wiki probably didn't sell 500k because all of the Europe sales are not going to Capcom but to Nintendo. So probably around 350k has been sold from Capcom, and another 150k from Nintendo. It still sold 500k, but not all the money is going to Capcom.
