ckmlb said: I think you are really overestimating Mario's sales. Super Mario Galaxy: Japan- 1,800,000 (Not casual enough to sell more) USA- 3,500,000 (Will sell very well but not even close to non traditional titles) Others- 2,000,000 (Will sell well) Total- 7,300,000 Halo 3: Japan- 150,000 (Only 360 hardcore and some adopters) USA- 8,000,000 (Biggest 360 game of the year) Others- 1,500,000 (Will sell well in the UK and Australia and decent in other parts) Total- 9,960,000 |
You said after this post that you were talking about this year alone (2007)... There is no way in hell that Halo 3 is going to sell 8,000,000 copies in America alone...The install base in America is at 7 million at the moment. Halo 3 would need to have an incredibly high attach rate to reach those kind of numbers.
