RolStoppable said: I know how that stuff works, no need to explain it. What I am amazed of is how fast the number has increased since three months ago. By the end of 2008, 30 third party games had shipped at least one million units. As for first party games, we have to guess. VGC has 17 listed with a few missing. For the sake of easiness, we'll just say 23. That would mean that 20 additional games passed the one million mark in shipments in the last three months. |
I was hoping to prevent people from coming and saying it was sold to retailers and not shipped by giving a new talking point. I have failed misreably in that goal.
I think the 49 number was from just before the holiday season right? I seem to recall it comign from their conference in October. A huge holiday rush would account for the massive jump in software sales, and explain why VGChartz might have missed it. I wish the article specified how many were first party just so we can have a better chance at guessing what is under tracked.
