I'm only referring to consoles and major PC gaming titles
Does decreasing sales of the current generation titles compared to older ones show signs that the gaming industry is not as good as it is all hyped up to be?
Here are some of the best old titles:
Super Mario Bros. - 40.24m
Super Mario Bros. 3 - 17.28m
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas - 18.24m
Gran Turismo - 10.85m
Now here are the current ones:
Mario Kart Wii - 21.65m
New Super Mario Bros. Wii - 13.23m
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 - 10.20m
Grand Theft Auto IV - 6.40m
Note: Although there are certainly more games, and that most are multiplatformers, the fact that there are lower console selling rates than the previous generations and even great AAA titles not selling as well as mario shows that people are getting less appreciative of gaming. I am not cherry picking, this is just ONE OF THE BEST form each console
Maybe motion control will change all that
