First Trials: Evolution broke the XBLA sales record and now, 2 weeks later, Minecraft took the record. XBLA is on fire! Therefore, so is digital sales, and in the next gen i believe all games will be offered digitally through PSN/XBL/whatever nintendo has, aswell as full physical release. Slowly peoples spending habits will change and in 5 years 90% of people will purchase games digitally. I pulled these figures out of my ass, but the point still stands. |
btw. the Walking Dead had the most activity of all XBLA games in April. Even higher than Trials. Probably the Dead Rising Case Zero effect, where a dirt cheap game ($5) sells multiple hundred thousand copies.

To be honest I really do not know anything about any games other than that are made by Nintendo. So I cannot honestly answer anything that you just posted to me.

Dead Rising Case Zero was the previous record holder for day one sales on XBLA. It came out shortly before Dead Rising 2 and was kind of a prequel to it (or maybe even a demo) for $5.
Now The Walking Dead Episode One is another cheap game that seemed to have done amazingly well. Anyway Minecraft is apparantly the biggest XBLA game as of now.

Wow! It really is hard to follow any of this. I will have to go look up some of this to make head or tails of any of it. Thanks for the information Barozi, you are a very informed member of the staff! And I like your posting style sir!
