1.6 million on a system that sold 22 million lifetime is not too shabby, you know! |
The first number is a problem for the publisher, the second isn't. Do you think Activision shareholders prefer to sell 8M CoD copies for PS3 with 80M and get 10% of the base or sell 1.5M to Wii U with 6M and get a 25% ratio?
Despite that, we know that install base doesn't equal directly to sales volume. It helps, but it won't scale directly and the relation can change with time.
