| Kasz216 said: Well I believe Sony expected of GT5 Prologue, 1 download copy for every 2 retail copys sold in japan. That's where i'd start the estimation. Probably round down a bit for American and Europe considering that high internet speeds are much more common in Japan. Different game but it's all you really have to go on. Nothing i'd try and esitmate sales on though. |
I'm not gonna comment on the numbers as I have absolutely no idea, but you are definitely wrong about rounding down numbers when comparing downloads between US/EU and Japan. It has absolutely nothing to do with connection speeds, in Japan most people just won't buy things online. Rates of credit card usage are much lower in Japan than in other developed nations, and that is why sony released PSN cards to try and overcome the aversion the Japanese have about paying for things online. I don't really know why, it's just a cultural thing.
