It would be really nice if VGChartz would have been better at keeping track of the total sales of games for the old Sega addons. Then it would be easier to see if trends are repeating themselves, or being broken.
I was thinking about this, and looking at Mega CD sales, it does have a game that did well for itself. Sonic CD sold over 1.5 million, wich is, for its time very impressive, and even more impressive since its on the Sega CD. Road Avenger might have done well for itself, becasue it was bundeled, but sadly its sales are not tracked.
32X game sales are missing completely from the VGC database :( And calculating the attach rate for the addons is probably impossible for me.
Anyway, the Kinect does have a couple of games that are doing well, like Kinect Adventures, and Dance Central. But looking at the majority of the Kinect library at this point, even though they stand out because of being launch titles, most games' total sales are very similar to Mega CD game sales (Of course, they will probably grow, but the market have changed over time, and that needs to be taken into consideration)
I guess my point of this is that, Kinect may be following the same trend as the MegaDrive addons, but it's really hard to tell.
I wouldn't be surprised if it ended up either way.
Thoughts?
I LOVE ICELAND!
