"When was the last time a cod game touch 15 million? Lol"

But sorry, no Pokemon is not bigger than Call of Duty, at least in gaming sales and revenue.

CoD WW2 generated $1 Billion in Revenue in less than 2 months.

Your average 3ds Pokemon game (16m-ish @ $40) generates around $650m in Revenue lifetime.

Pokemon outgrossed CoD in Pokemon Go's launch year, in 2016 Pokemon Go made $950m in Revenue, though this quickly died down as for the first 6 months of 2017 it only made $250m in revenue.

2016 Pokemon Outgrossed, 2017 Call of Duty certainly took it, and every year before 2016 since CoD:4 probably.

"Pokemon grossed 3.3 billion $ in 2016" - That figure includes tv, movies, trading cards, T-shirts, Amiibo, etc etc.

“At least in gaming sales” what’s next? “At least for shooting games”?

Love your exclusion. Pokémon has sold more than cod and is the highest grossing media of all time. That’s just the factz

Even just in gaming revenue Pokémon trounce on COD. I love how you’re only counting 3ds “core” games when Pokémon has a million different games on mobile plus Pokken which sold over 1 million on Switch lol. Even the recent release of red and blue sold millions on the 3ds as download only titles.

COD never took anything.

Okay, well you have a point. PS4 sales are slowing down. And most people who own one are recurring buyers of said franchises. But even without those, there's Red Dead 2, Spiderman, and other Sony exclusives that I think will push hardware sales. Believe me, I'm personally rooting for Nintendo as they're more prone to greater growth, but I think it could go either way.

Don't underestimate the Pokemon Go audience...or Genwunners.

Well considering Movies, Anime, Trading Cards, TShirts, Figurines and Plush Toys have absolutley nothing to do with the discussion at hand, yes, exclude them.

Yes both are facts, neither mean CoD is "No where close to Pokemon". In gaming alone in recent years CoD is bigger.

“In gaming alone COD is bigger” 

Then why has no cod games outsold red and blue yet? What are your facts and where are you getting them?

“in gaming when only 3ds games from 2013 counts with no spin off” or something else delusional in your mind?

This my final post in this discussion, COD will NEVER I MEAN WILL NEVER catch up to Pokémon.

Even recently COD has sold what 2 million more than recent Pokémon “core” games. It will never catch up in pure sales because even Pokémon spin off games sold 2 - 5 million yearly adding to its grand total. In revenue, it was never even remotely close.

end 

So in your comment about "CoD is no where near pokemon" you were talking about the past? Or were you talking about which is bigger presently? Because only one of those makes sense in the context you said it. Nice Try.

"Even recently COD has sold what 2 million more than recent Pokémon “core” games."

"core" pokemon games aren't annual titles like Call of Duty, so that pushes it much more in CoD's favour. I would quote sales figures but I know you'll just say "Lel vgchartz numbers are bad."

Which is bigger presently?

A spin off game with 800 million downloads and over 2.5 billion dollars in revenue.

Once again

END. We don’t use VGChartz here

That's an interesting figure? Where did you get that? it had $950m in it's first 6 months, $250m revenue in the 6 months following that. It seems you took the $1.2b figure for it's first 12 months and then doubled it, how terrible.

Pokemon was bigger in 2016 due to Pokemon Go. But other then that Blip, Call of Duty is the bigger gaming franchise.

I understand why you'd want this discussion to end.

Edit: Found Pokemon Go Figures: $1.84B as of December 31st 2017.

So using the January-June figures from 2017 we could estimate revenue is around $2 Billion

CoD will likely have little impact on hw sales during the next holiday season. What I personally think is more interesting is RDR2. If the RDR franchise will achieve similar growth to the GTA franchise, it will be huge. At that point, what remains to be seen is how those sales will be distrubuted between PS4 and Xbone and how they will impact hw sales. If I remember correctly, Sony has a marketing deal with R*, plus exclusive content.
