MHF on PSP did alright compared to MHF2 but that's what kick started things for the handheld. Maybe we'll see a similar trend with the Wii games. |
To be fair, it would have sold about the same maybe a litle less on the PS3.

I seriously doubt that. It outsold every PS3 game's lifetime Japanese sales by the end of its 2nd week... it's hard to argue it would have done better on PS3. It's also by far the best selling 3rd party console game this gen, and likely to double MGS4's lifetime Japanese sales or more.

It's obvious Capcom made the right decision by releasing this game the console with the bigger user base and will make way more money due to lesser devolopment cost, but I really think this game would have been huge no matter if itson the Wii or PS3, it's one of the biggest franchises right now in Japan thanks to the PSP.
BTW, I am getting sick of people calling this game a bomb, that's just crazy talk.

If it sold as well on PS3 it would be selling to 1/4th of the insall base which is a HARD sell even the best selling games of all time minus the bundles can't do that... probably the only games to do this I can list are Mario Kart DD and Super Smash Bros Melee... it's honest to God that hard to achieve those sales since the whole install base =/= MH fans.

That's why MGS4 sold so little on the PS3 when comapred that massive 120 million userbase? The game wuld have sold very well, just not as well as on the Wii, i know that.
