Forums - Sales - Best selling console games of 2007

Howdy there, and welcome back to another addition of "the best selling games".

If you didn't read my earlier one (which will be updated every 1-2 weeks), visit this link: http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=35111&start=0

Oyv has also added a best selling games of 2008 there, if you are interested in that.

Well, enough about past threads, and over to this one.

A few notes though - even though a few Ps2 titles, and maybe a GC or two should sneak in here, they aren't included. The simple reason is that there aren't really enough colours, and it would cause a bit confusion here. If you really want them though, I might add them in the end of it. Also note that these numbers are incomplete. A few Xbox360 titles could have the incorrect numbers.

The only sales are 1.5M and above.

Blue is Wii, Red is Playstation 3, and Green is Xbox 360.

1. Wii Sports - 14.6M 

2. Wii Play - 8.3M 

3. Halo 3 - 7.0M 

4. Super Mario Galaxy - 4.8M 

5. Call of Duty 4 - 4.1M 

6. Mario Party 8 - 4.0M

9. Mario & Sonic - 2.6M  

10. MotorStorm - 2.5M 

11. Twilight Princess - 2.2M

12. Super Paper Mario - 2.1M

19. Big Brain Academy - 1.7M

20. Gears of War - 1.7M

22. Bioshock - 1.5M

 

There are 9 Wii titles that sold 1.5M or more. 7 of them sold 2.0M or more, and 4 of them sold 4M or more. They total out 41.6M of sales. If you take out Wii Sports (and are a moron) you get 30.2M

There are 9 Xbox 360 titles here. 5 sold 2.0M or more. 4 sold 3.0M or more, and 2 sold 4.0M or more. They total out 26.5M.

7 Wii games sold 1.0-1.5M, making the total 16 games 1M+ games, and the total 48.9M with Wii Sports, and 37.5M without Wii Sports.

2 Ps3 games were here, making the total 6 million sellers, and the total 11.4M

3 X360 games, totalling up to 12 1M+, and a total of 30.3M

 

The total Wii software sales for 2007, are according to this site 72.8M. This means that roughly 66% of the Wii's total total are 1M + sellers.

The total Ps3 software was 29.4M, meaning that less than 40% of the Ps3's total sales were 1M + sellers.

The total X360 software was 65M, meaning that a little less than half of the sales were from the million sellers.

 



Around the Network

We'll need comprehensive archives like this in the future.



Leatherhat on July 6th, 2012 3pm. Vita sales:"3 mil for COD 2 mil for AC. Maybe more. "  thehusbo on July 6th, 2012 5pm. Vita sales:"5 mil for COD 2.2 mil for AC."

We might actually get a Worldwide version of one of these on the site (like American yearly and Japan yearly) if ioi gets more reliable PAL data.



Another excellent archival piece. thanks.



The rEVOLution is not being televised

Keep up the good work.

I think we can all safely say that 2007 was NOT the year of the PS3



I hope my 360 doesn't RRoD

good stuff



Nice work.

 

Interesting that the often repeated line that Wii owners don't buy as much software as HD console owners seems to be little more than a myth. (especially since the 360 started the year with a large lead in install base)



Not bad.

And yea Wii owners by plenty of software. Especially in the holiday months. That's when all those mainstream buyers go shopping.



Great stuff! Thanks.
