| Boutros said: From ZhugeEX: Metal Gear Solid series sales in USA. Below is packaged unit sales. MGS: ~2.5m MGS2: ~2.2m MGS3: ~1.5m MGS4: >2m MGS5: ~1m Includes sales for PlayStation platforms + Substance, Subsistence & bundled sales. (Re-releases or digital not counted ofc) Now worldwide sell in- MGS: 7m+ MGS2: 7m+ MGS3: 4m+ MGS4: 6m+ MGS5: 5m+ |
So in USA the series took a great hit when going MP (or is that LTD instead of comparable timeframe?) even if they have bigger install base than before (PS4+X1> PS3 or PS2 or PS1 in comparable time, right?), but is stable WW where it probably is smaller than what PS2 was?
