The sales numbers here for The World of Warcraft series don't seem to be accurate as The Frozen Throne and The Burning Crusade are listed as having 0.00 sales while one site I saw said The Burning Crusade sold 2.4 million copies in its first 24 hours. So I believe that World of Warcraft sold 3 million more copies after Burning Crusade was released.

What does an expansion selling 2.4 million have anything to do with the original game selling 3 million, are you confused?


     In order to play the expansion you have to have the original game.  Burning Crusade has sold many more than 2.4 million copies.  That was just its first day numbers.

Yes, but that was all to players who already bought the game! Just like all expansions. Expansions don't cause the expansion of the player base, they only target the current player base. This is a fact.
