Legend11 said: True but that doesn't get down to the core of the argument that sequels in a series that have appeared on a console don't generally move much hardware. The PS3 got a price cut in Japan prior to the FF13 bundle as did the 360 in the US (albeit only at some stores and only temporarily) so it likely all evens out. |
Uncharted 2 is a sequel and moved hardware.
If this is about people saying that sequels can't move hardware I will agree with you that they indeed can move hardware.
However I am almost positive that MW2 did not move more HW for the 360 in the US than FFXIII did for the PS3 in Japan.
As for your other question, no the Walmart deal only applied to the $200 Arcade. You buy the Arcade for $200 and you get a $100 Walmart gift card.
I am not even sure if we have a solid number on the amount of MW2 Bundled sold.
You think majority of that weeks sales were $400 MW2 bundles and not $99 Arcades?
iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.
