Do you actually have any QUANTITIES? 1000? 5000? 50,000? It doesn't actually mean anything unless you attach numbers to it. Or look at it this way: - "Others" is selling around 100k PS3s a week at the moment - this might increase to ... 150k? for the MGS4 launch There might be 10,000 bundles - which represents 7% of the total PS3 sales for the week. ... We all saw what happened with GTA - weekly sales spiked to 200% on the week it was released - and within 4 weeks it was back to normal. I'm pretty sure MGS will have LESS of an impact on sales than GTA did - so maybe an extra 100k hardware in Europe (over a month), 100k in the US, and about 50k in Japan. The Japan sales will be interesting - with the PS3 hovering around the 9k mark (weekly), be real interesting to see what level hardware hits on launch week - I'm guessing around 30k. |
he forgot to mention that the mgs4 bundle isn't even available in the uk, yet the ps3 has sold out in 4 online retailers. i think mgs4 will sell less software compared to gta4, but because it's exclusive, it will sell alot more hardware.
