Sales - A "leg formula"? - View Post

I was thinking a really long time about trying to make a "leg" formula and I came to the conclusion that there were to many variables that determines legs...

BUT, one thing I did decided on was it would not be just the first week, but the first 2-3 weeks...

The problem I ran into was games like Halo and Pokemon, Which each sold over 4 million launch week world wide so their % will be skewed even though they still enjoy solid sales week in and week out. They have legs even though their % would be jacked up... then there is games like Cooking Mama which actually chart lower than halo or pokemon but would have a MUCH Better %
