Funny that you bring this up: Wasn’t DC on track to outsell GCN and Xbox (assuming sales figures maintained momentum)? The system was a breakout success at launch, and managed to blast through 9-13mil in only a little over a year, i believe [9.9.99 -> 1.31.01]. |
No, the DC wasn't. In the USA:
It performed on Wii U levels after its launch plus first holiday season. It wasn't any better in Japan or Europe either. About half of DC's global lifetime sales (which are around 10m at best) happened at dumping prices once Sega had announced its discontinuation
Legend11 correctly predicted that GTA IV will outsell Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I was wrong.
