Forums - Sales - Wii Gets Fourth 5+ Million Seller, Passes X360

Montana, come on! It's leo-j! You can't honestly tell me that he wouldn't have done that!

At least put a warning on his post. He used the "s" word. I thought you said profanity isn't allowed on the boards?



Damn things have changed since 2009 began. Here are my new visions for the end of the generation.

 

Wii: 135 mil

Ps3: 85 mil

360: 60 mil

Just for completions sake... what about PS3?

I mean... ok they don't have any now Motorstorm won't get there with MS2 coming out...

COD4 might, as it may stay the best shooter on PS3 until COD6.

Outisde of that you'd expect GTA4 to get there for PS3.

GT5P may sadly get there as well.

Other then that for the year i can't think of anything though.

MGS maybe? Outside chance?  You've got userbase issues but it's the kinda game i think would keep selling to where it'll get it eventually.



Will GTAIV sell 5 million on the PS3 alone?

I'm asking, I haven't read any predictions or done any myself.

I would assume the majority of the sales for the game would come on the 360 front, considering the userbase, and at this point, 40 percent attach rates for the PS3 would be an amazing boon.


What is the top selling PS3 game, so far?



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

Pretty sure that was directed at me, but I did include GTAIV in there as one that'll reach 5mil soon.. and if you'll notice i only included titles which i thought'll reach it within the next few months.. and i think i was quite generous to suggest that both 360 and ps3 will sell 5mil copies of it within the next few months

 Motorstorm at 3 Mil, followed by COD4 nearly at 3 mil... and Resistance and AC at about 2 and a half mil each.


COD4 might keep selling since COD5 is going to suck.

Hmm, pretty damn good. Although, 2 of the 360's were 3rd party games.

True, and as we all know, a first-party game is only worth 3/5 that of a third-party game.

Actually, no. It's completely menaingless, and yet another example of moving the goalposts to try to discount Nintendo's success. It's sad that people can't let this go.


Uhh, can't let what go? Sounded like a bunch of buzz words stuck together.

Well, sorry.


If you really don't understand, (and I think you're just playing dumb), just go to any of the chart threads and read how Wii Sports doesn't count because it's bundled and not a real game, Wii Play doesn't count because it comes with a remote, Mario Party, Mario and Sonic, and Carnival Games don't count because they're too casual, Resident Evil 4 doesn't count because it came out for other systems, etc. As someone mentioned in another thread, Wii Fit won't count either, and I'm sure there's some reason why we can all ignore Galaxy.

You did it yourself in this thread, when you highlighted "Wii" and "Mario." Some people just have this weird persistent urge to prove to themselves that Nintendo's games succeed for illegitemate reasons.

I agree that there's a definite amount of bias in tracking software sold (people seem to forget that the PS3 has a new bundle every week).

As for the highlighting, lighten up.
