i know i said that already to you some time ago but everything else would be bad for a game which is still advertised at least in germany and in many racing series around the world. now we even get the gt academy 2012 as tv show on maybe the biggest tv channel germany's.

just imagine you would invest so much for advertisement and it would sell 1k per week^^

nothing against the game, i just think that these weekly sales aren't really something special with these investments.

Which other game you know with similar ads???

Even with similar or better ads there are few game selling 20k a week near 2 years in the market.

gran turismo games are the only games i know getting advertisement even months and years after release (and world of warcraft) so i can't tell you about sales of games 2 years after release with advertisement.  so yeah, no clue which other games with similiar or better ads sell less after 2 years because all the games i know get 0 advertisement few month after release, that's exactly what i'm saying, a game with advertisement should sell more as all the other games without because that's why it's advertised, to increase sales.

and gt is surely the biggest racing franchise even without that, that's not what i try to say if you think so

Well the GT serie is not the biggest advertised game in the market... Halo, CoD, Forza have more ads than GT.

Maybe it's your region the odd.

Dem Wii sales are insane; it's outselling a system released over 5 years later than it when its successor is mere weeks away!

I have noted a lack of "VITA IS SAVED" threads and people this time round. How...unusual ;)



Are you mocking Vita fans? Ill let Radishhead know about this.


Not sure what your problem is, this was a well put post that illustrates a lot. Besides you were here during the crow-eating days....Are you reverse-crow-eater now?...strange.

 

Looking forward to november when we can really see what will become of the Vita.

Very curious how Sony will handle it if it's pulse is still flat at that point. Obviously at this stage they won't even talk about dropping it, but if it is dead by Xmas they won't really have a choice. Business is business.



Just so you know, I was taking the piss

what has advertisement in general for other games to do with what i say? i'm talking about the sales two years after release and not if modern warfare 3 or gt 5 got more advertisement weeks before and after release. all i'm saying is that it wouldn't be in the top 20 if it would get the same advertisement as other two years old games, advertisement for 0€.

it would still sell better than most two years old games but wouldn't be on that "spectacular" position.

and if you think i try to let gran turismo look bad compared to maybe xbox games, you should check my last posts where i said forza games got lot of bundling and halo 4 still didn't have the advertisement which halo reach got in usa if i look at the preorders

That's a bit hard to say since we don't know exactly how 3DS is selling with NSMB2.

I don't think it's as much as the game isn't selling as fast as NSMB... http://www.vgchartz.com/tools/game_comparison.php?reg=Global&ending=Cumulative&game[]=New+Super+Mario+Bros.+%28DS%29+[1582]&game[]=New+Super+Mario+Bros.+2+%283DS%29+[70735]&game[]=&game[]=

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.
