Did GT5 make a profit?

so know its fuzzy maths versus fuzzy bundles estimates.

Nothing "fuzzy" on the latter, we know the actual bundle breakdown in Japan thanks to sales trackers.  According to Famistu...

GT5P (unbundled) 238,578 

GT5P Spec III (bundled) 295,174

so japan is now indicative of the rest of the world when it comes to bundled unbundled and does sales trackers include DL and who do they track

So, where did I say that?  All I said was we can't put a per copy return figure on sales universally due to bundling (which was worldwide), and the one region we had specific insight into those figures was Japan (which heavily favored free bundled copies).  Nothing more, nothing less.

Famitsu samples 70% of Japanese retail iirc, and extrapolates the rest.  That's more than NPD even I believe.

that still doesn't answer the DL numbers that Sony/Polophony obviously makes extra profit on plus the thread is basically do you think GT5-P paid for GT5 and the only ones who know for sure are Sony/ Polophony themselves so all we are doing is taking how best guesses and despite the japanese figures he could be right, what about you do you think did GT5-p made enough money or not
