I still think the first two are the most successful in the franchise since neither one had any bundles. Also GT 5 Prologue had a really slow start it only sold 217K units in its first 10 weeks. But Considering it was probably one of the least expensive GT games to make since its launched with very little condent and didn't get a lot of extra condent via DLC it was probably the most profitable GT game. |
From what I remember (they said GT5P was made to fund GT5) GT5 sales were basically pure profit. But you need to choose what is your metric for success, because you changed from attach rate to unbundled sales (that we can't measure bundled quantity)) and them to profitability.
