Sorry but NO.

Your point of view might be valid in a subjective way. But the base of tie ratio and the concept of "units sold" is economical data. It's all about money spent. Revenue.

If you don't pay specifically for a game, (which isen't the case in bundles), then there is no reason to include it. In a count. How can you put on the same level the Wiisport included in the Wii (US & EU) and the Wiisport sold in japan. They do not generate the same revenues (and same goes for the Forza/MUA/Motorstorm things).

 

If it was a matter of "how much ppl liked the game", then you would be right, and I would even go further : you would have to take in account the second hand market to get accurate picture of the "most loved games".

But that's not what "units SOLD" are about.

 


if it were strictly about revenue then should we readjust all game sales into fractions of a unit when, as they get older, they sell for a lower price?  Should all handheld games only count as a fraction of a game since they are always cheaper than consols?  hellz no.

bundled or no money is being made, how that money is distributed between consol/game is a moot point,  the customer has the game.  how much revenue the game made is a moot point, not all games sell for the same anyways.
