More and more people are not buying the Show instead of MLB 2K series. Baseball videogames as a whole are declining in sales.
MLB 06 sales:
PS2: .75M
PSP: .33M
MLB 07 sales:
PS3: .27M
PS2: .76M
PSP: .28M
Total: 1.31M
MLB 08 sales:
PS3: .64M
PS2: .35M
PSP: .33M
Total: 1.32M
MLB 09 sales:
PS3: .59M
PS2: .16M
PSP: .24M
Total: .99M
This goes along with the MLB 2K series also declining in sales, along with The Bigs 2 selling less than the original, and along with the cancellation of MLB Power Pros. It's baseball itself that is becoming unpopular in videogame form. The Show hasn't had any real growth as a series since the original, regardless of it's quality climbing, and regardless of the last installment having a very healthy advertising budget on sports networks like ESPN and male oriented channels like SPIKE. It's either been stagnant or declined in sales on all of it's three platforms since MLB 06: The Show.
