He's talking about revenue. Not absolute sales.

That is true but how much did Braid cost? $10? So The Witness could've sold 1/4 of Braid copies and made tha same amount of money. That is still an impressive number though.

How much did Braid sell in its first year?

That is a good question, it was at the time of launch one of the highest rated games on the 360 and in a few days it almost reached 30,000 copies sold. I can't get to year one sales because now it is cluttered with The Witness articles :P
I assume that it kept selling good because of the reception?

Blow made this post a few days after release.

 

Didn't it release on PC first?
