After all the talk, all the prophecies of the past few years about this game we now have GT5 first week numbers which were
2.072m sales.
How do you guy's think it did? Does that number meet your expectations?
Me personally i think that is not so good.
Reason i think that is over the last year or so we have heard various arguments from people talking about how it will sell more then GT4 first week easily, some going on to say it will sell 10m+. The hype around it and the length of time it has taken to get out make me think it should of done much better.
GT4 had a first week of 2.523m
But while the gap is 451k between the two GT5 had something that GT4 didn't. It had a holiday period and a black friday. While black friday means nothing in Japan and Europe it still means the sales period would be higher then that of february with people doing their xmas shopping.
So it makes you think if it didn't have a holiday period and a black friday what kind of sales would we have seen? It could of been lower.
