I'm bored, so I just thought I'd offer a little analysis of THQ sales this generation on all platforms. Here are the sales totals for all published THQ games this gen minus the big successes of Smackdown vs Raw and Saints Row.
PS3
6 titles selling 510,000 units
85,000 units per title
X360
12 titles selling 2,110,000 units
176,000 units per title
Wii
12 titles selling 1,480,000 units
123,000 units per title
The Wii seems to be doing okay, considering its a year younger than the 360 and has cheaper dev costs.
The 360 is clearly where THQ is making most of its money, for the moment. Saints Row was a million seller and Smackdown vs Raw has sold best on that platform.
PS3 is looking really bad for THQ. PS360 multiplat bombs like Conan, Stuntman: Ignition, and Juiced 2 landed with such a resounding thud on PS3 that one wonders if THQ recouped the cost of porting.
