We also know that there is no way that the game would have sold as much as it had if it hadn´t been for 2ndG. Let´s say that Wii gets MH3G. Would we add those sales to MH3´s total? I think not and I´m a Wiifan. It makes no sense. I agree with adding sales for a best price version, it´s the same game but not new releases that add new elements. |
The chief problem with adding totals is that 90% of MH2P fans also bought MHP2G, you basically double counting the core audience. I never see people doing this for Pokemon (ie adding Emerald to Ruby/Sapphire totals or Platinum to Diamond/Pearl totals), which is probably the closest analog.
If we're doing it though, I'll go ahead and say say MH3 + MH3G > FFXIII. :P
