I really don't see that like some big achievement, despite Halo 5 was released 1.5 year earlier, PS4 has twice bigger instal base than XB1.

Just when I though we already have moved from this. If WiiU reached 100M, would Splatoon have 50M sales?

 

And just to finish what imagedvd was saying... yes, having a bigger userbase can lead to more potential buyers, but when looking at trends and it shows the title being unpervious to userbase (very little flunctuation between userbase size and sw sales) it mute your argument as the main reason being userbase.

So what you are try to tell me that Halo 5 sale numbers would have same if XB1 installed base is twice of current one!? Of Course that we can assume if installed base of much bigger than Splatoon would sell also much better.

If we watch VGC numbers, Halo 5 sold 4.2m on instal base of 23m, wile Uncharted 4 sold also 4.2m on instal base of 44.7m, basically attach rate of Halo 5 is almost twice bigger than attach rate of Uncharted 4, that far more impressive despite its lees time on market.
