artur-fernand said: Best-selling retail, non-heavily bundled game ever, yes. It seems a lot of people on the thread are downplaying GTA5. "Five different platforms? Mario did that in just one console!". Being heavily bundled, yes. GTA reached this insane number in little over a year, that's absolutely crazy. And only a FRACTION of those sales come from that PS3 bundle. And A LOT of those sales were full-price. Wii Sports doesn't look that impressive in comparison really. |
5 consoles in a little over a year?
How about 1 console in 5 years?

2007 | 14,794,664 | 476.8% | 17,359,679 |
2008 | 21,842,013 | 47.6% | 39,201,692 |
2009 | 18,788,738 | -14.0% | 57,990,430 |
2010 | 15,069,016 | -19.8% | 73,059,446 |
Even in 4 years Wii Sports wins. I still think SMB is the real King, but GTA 5 really isn't RIGHT NOW.
