With those 650k shipped for the franchise, how many could we say were MGS4's?


seriously? Most likely ALL. I cant think of any that would still be shipping.

Isn't this shipped, not sold? Hopefully it indicates that it will surpass 5 million soon, but I am pretty sure it hasn't yet. Easy mistake to make though (assuming it is shipped, not sold, I am not 100% sure).

how many copies of a 2 year old game do stores need on hand? Hint: no significant amount. Maybe like 2 per store WW

I'm pretty sure that most times I'm in places like Game, GameStop, HMV etc, MGS4 is stacked like a lot of newer releases (not completely new, but 3-6 months). It has shelf space going about 2-3 games across and 3-4 deep, so 6-12 copies. On top of that, they probably have some in the storerooms.

 

I'm just saying that this is probably a shipped figure, but I'd expect it to hit the 5 million mark in sales soon (if this is shipped).

No, the first Metal Gear Solid is.

Fuck Steve Harvey. FREE EARL!

Final Fantasy Versus XIII will be the GREATEST game EVER made!!!

I'd take a bullet for Square-Enix!

I saying no way on that. MW2 doesnt even get that kind of treatment and that has sold a shit ton more, is newer, and sells a shit ton more each week (Platforms combined then yes it would probablly get that type of shelf space but not seperate)
