Forums - Gaming Discussion - Crash Bandicoot Trilogy will rocket past 20 million copies - Why aren't we talking about this?

3M would be great!
5M would be amazing!
5M+ would be insane!

20M WOULD BE THE END OF THE WORLD!!!



Around the Network

2.0 million might be possible.



Well we've just passed the one year mark and the PS4 version has likely passed 5m units including digital, and while the OP was obviously trolling the game could be on it's way to reaching 10m sales with all versions combined, a strong start in the UK for Switch/XBO versions. Almost everyone in this thread underestimated the bandicoot. Some very severely. Ordered worst to best... (sort of)

Mar1217 - "1M if it's lucky enough."

Nautilus - "It wont even do close to 10% of that number (2m). Multiplat or not."

gatito - "That Yokay whatever game will outsell this. (Yooka-Laylee) And I'm only talking about the Switch version."

Jpcc86 - "I cant see it selling more than 1.5m."

Metroid33slayer - "A crash bandicoot remaster collection will sell 2 million tops."

WagnerPaiva - "It will sell a couple of million and that is it."

Augen - "2.0 million might be possible."

Plerpy_ - "It will be 3 million max."

monocle_layton - "I think 2-4 million would be an optimistic guess."

Darwinianevolution - "I can see it reaching 3-3.5 million copies"

fedfed - "4 mil if on all platforms and discounted!"

Barkley - "over 2.5 million sales lifetime on PS4."

Alkibiades - "3M would already be above expectations (on PS4)"

think-man - "If it goes to all platforms it might clear 5 million at best."




Kinda crazy to see remakes of classic drawing this kind of water. I think it illustrates a certain dissatisfaction with current AAAs.

I ll be surprised if it reaches 10m.
With Geralt sometimes Im not sure if hes just trolling and likes to take digs at sony or what :p

That was me 1,5 years ago.....

Now Crash is probably over 5m on the PS4, and its selling pretty well on the NS & XB1 as well..... It might actually do those 10m.

How did you come to that conclusion?

It doesn't matter now good or bad AAA games currently are, people would still want to buy old classics. 

 

And ps4 players certainly are not dissatisfied. We have been spoiled the last few years.

More proof that companies need to start doing this treatment to other ps1 and ps2 games. I'm looking at you Konami, give me Mgs 1-3 with this level of remastered polish and all will be forgiven. There are sooo many games that could net companies massive profit, imagine how much the GTA ps2 games would sell recreated in the GTA 5 engine or the OG tombraiders. Nostalgia is powerful and as SoC and Crash have shown,games from back then can be modernized and not only sell to old fans but sell to a whole new generation of gamers built from the hype of the nostalgia afflicted. What I'd do for the MGS trilogy with clean updated visuals and quality of life improvements spread throughout the three titles or a Vice city port that doesn't make me want to vomit from motion blurr.

Agreed.  I would kill a puppy for the remakes of Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver, Giant: Citizen Kabuto and Jedi Outcast.
