Compare GT5 Prologue sales in Japan to GT4 Prologue sales in Japan (EMEAA figures should be ignored because Prologue came out a month before the game did in EMEAA). With 2 years to sell GT5P, instead of 1 year GT4P had, GT5P still undersold GT4P by 220k. GT4P outsold GT5P by 38.6% in half the time. GT3 also was bundled heavily in Americas, all other GT's did not sell that well in Americas. GT5 Pre-orders indicate the same trend all past GT games have had. So if GT5 manages to somehow do as well as all past GT's, it will only get 10 million at best, but with weak attention in Japan, and weak Pre-orders in Americas, I doubt it will do that well. So I think GT5 will sell 8.5 million, which is stll damn good for a PS3 exclusive, and very reasonable. |
OK.......?
Compare GT5P to GT4p?
GT5P = 5m sold ON A CONSOLE WITH 37m userbase
GT4P = 1.3m ON A CONSOLE WITH OVER 100m userbase.
thx for further proving my point.
GT games never sold well in NA? is that why GT4 sold nearly 3m in NA while FIRST WEEK sales is LOWER than GOD OF WAR 3 in NA?
And 10m at best? that fine with me since that will make 90% of the ppl in this forum EAT CROW.
