It will sell more units in Japan then half of that list I suspect.

U3 and U2 done 200k each.  Some western franchises have become more popular in recent years, I'm thinking/hoping Uncharted will be one of them.

GTA V sold 800k on PS3 far higher then its predecessors, Im presuming its getting a PS4 launch over there In Q1/Q2. That should do very well too. 


But did any of them boost ps3?

Probably,  I think it will contribute towards any future baseline anyway. Looking back at 2011, PS3's baseline was up 9% during uncharted 3's launch. The game debuted with 120k (bigger then I expected). Expect the bump to be bigger as the PS4 will still be relatively new when it launches versus the PS3 in 2011.

The week before Uncharted 3 ps3 sold 25217 and the week of Uncharted 3 it sold 26966

The week before gta 5 ps3 sold 10232 and the week of gta 5 it sold 12395

So both wasn't a system seller


25.217


If we're only counting big system sellers then the OP might aswell remove half those games, otherwise based on whats there Uncharted and GTA are worth a shout.

edit: Also very few games gave the PS3 a hardware boost late in its life. FFXIII: Lightning returns only the gave the ps3 a 3% boost when it launched november 2013, smaller then Uncharted and GTA.
