IamAwsome said: Sonic games have good legs. 06 did 2 million across the PS3/360, and we all know how that game was. The game will probably get more sales when it hits the bargain bin. |
I saw this, and decided to do a bit of a comparison.
The Xbox 360, for the week ending 18th of November 2006, saw Sonic the Hedgehog 06 released, and its first week sales were... 18,040. On the PS3, for the week ending 3rd of February 2007 (when it released in the US), its first week sales were 14,900. Both games went on to sell about 400k in North America alone, and about 1 million each globally.
Sonic Lost World on Wii U saw 28,684 copies sold in the US in the first week. And that's despite launching two weeks earlier, thus having a reduced benefit regarding holiday sales ramp-up.
