Seems farfetched, but could it be that those are the top 3? (DS3, R&C, MLB)

Sounds like a possibility to me.

It is possible to MLB to have sold this high ?.

Bravely Second made the top ten:

So QB sold SF0. Still doesn't give off much confidence...



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

I think this is Ratchet's biggest launch in more than a decade.

QB > Star Fox and QB > Bravely

All but confirms it. QB was outsold by R&C

QB > Star Fox and QB > Bravely, the latter was close

So does that mean Bravely sold more than SF0?

SF0 in 10th place.

I am buzzing with excitement. This is so awesome. Hope it can be the best selling in the series. One thing is for sure though, this has completely rejuvenated the franchise.

 

EDIT: Also seems like R&C had a hella good digital ratio: "Add the crazy digital share in and we definitely are way ahead of any other Ratchet game's first 3 weeks."

Which honestly doesn't surprise me. It's not as big (file size wise) as games like UC4 et. al. and it's 40$, which I think (for some reason) makes people more inclined to buy digital.

Abdiel on the Quantum Break bundle: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=203426628&postcount=634
"The bundle was... no. It was virtually nil. I'll be stunned if the bundle contributed meaningfully to anything."
