Forums - Sales - What would have been lauch sales of MGS4 had it been an Xbox360 exclusive?

Hardware sales would have likely been boosted as result. MGS fans would buy the system to play the game. Although how many would is unclear... So maybe 150K Japan, America 650K and Europe 300K

I don't see how GTA4 and DMC4 sales on Europe are rather the same for ps3 and 360 yet you knock off 100K+ for MGS4 launch.

Don't understand why you think the game would sell 100K copies less on the 360...



same as the ps3 launch in others and na but probably just 150k-200k in japan.

but it isnt and didnt so meh.



I wasn't to sure about what previous game's release I could compare it to. So I just made a conservative guess, and a bad one at that.

japan 200k ??? get real

 

Blue Dragon sold that much so I don't see why MGS4 wouldn't have.

Personally I think in NA it would've sold close to a million, Europe about the same as PS3, and Japan 100k to 150k


blue dragon is a flop

It has outsold disgaea 3 and valkyria by a nice margin and it's still the biggest selling next-gen jrpg in japan.

I'd say

Americas: 700k
Europe 380K
Japan: 50K

= 11.3M

I think your period is a little off. Did you mean "1.13 million"?
