| Onyxmeth said: 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 MLB 07 sales: PS3: .27M Total: 1.31M MLB 08 sales: PS3: .64M Total: 1.32M MLB 09 sales: PS3: .59M 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. |
I've noticed, and it's a shame, but I'm curious to see what the Slim might do for The Show (with the increased userbase).
