Ovyovyovy posted this in another thread, and I found it pretty interesting.

Anyway, onward to mail!

Wii: 

Titles with 5K + =  459 titles

5-50K = 147 titles (32% fail to reach 50K)

50-150K = 112 titles (56.4% fail to reach 150)

150-250K = 55 titles (68% fail to reach 250K)

250-400K = 40 titles (77% fail to reach 400K)

400-500K = 18 titles (81% fail to reach 500K)

500-750K = 18 titles (85% fail to reach 750K)

750-1000K = 15 titles (88% fail to reach 1M)

1000-1500K = 17 titles (93% fail to reach 1.5M)

1500-2500K = 9 titles (96% fail to reach 2.5M)

2500K + = 14 titles (3% reach 2.5M)

Ps3: 

Titles with 5K + 248 titles

5-50K = 42 titles = (16% fail to reach 50K)

50-150K = 55 titles = (39% fail to reach 150K)

150-250K = 32 titles (51% fail to reach 250K)

250-500K = 52 titles (72% fail to reach 500K)

500-750K = 31 titles (84% fail to reach 750K)

750-1000K = 12 titles (89% fail to reach 1M)

1M - 1.5M = 7 titles (93% fail to reach 1.5M)

1.5M - 2.5M = 9 titles (96% fail to reach 2.5M)

2.5M + = 8 titles (3% reach 2.5M or more)

X360:  

 5K + = 373 games

 5-50K = 49 games (13% fail to reach 50K)

50-150K = 72 games (32% fail to reach 150K)

150-250K = 48 games (45% fail to reach 250K)

250-500K = 70 games (64% fail to reach 500K)

500-750K = 42 games (75% fail to reach 750K)

750-1000K = 24 games (82% fail to reach 1M)

1M-1.5M = 20 games (88% fail to reach 1.5M)

1.5-2.5M = 31 games (96% fail to reach 2.5M)

2.5M + = 12 games (3% reach 2.5M or more)

So overall,

 5-50K = 32% 16% 13%

50-150K = 56% 39% 32%

150-250K = 68% 51% 45%

250-500K = 81% 72% 64%

500-750K = 85% 84% 75%

750-1000K = 88% 89% 82%

1M-1.5M = 93% 93% 88%

1.5-2.5M = 96% 96% 96%

2.5M + = 3% 3% 3%

Ey! Cool. And you gave me credits this time :)

I have to say, I thought the Wii would be in a better situation.  81% fail to reach 500K?

Equally many Wii titles reach 500K as X360 titles reach 1M!

are you counting games with no data or what? Very, very few games that have WW releases will fail to reach 50k.

if you want me to pay attention to these numbers i demand they be plotted on a graph.

He (well, I) counted titles that have sold 0.01M on the games database. That means it has sold at least 5K, as stated.

Interestingly enough there are more Wii titles over 50k than there are PS3 titles (312 vs. 248) and the number of titles over 50k is very similar for the XBox 360 and Wii ... It should be interesting to see how these systems compare from now on, being that the XBox 360's year head start meant that it was the leading console for the first (roughly) 30 months of this generation.

Looks like mathematical fail on part of thread creator since 96+3=99 :)

Rounding errors perhaps

96.49 + 3.49 = 99.98

Cool, I was too lazy to count this myself. :D

Nice project. Anyway you can factor in those that do not have European numbers? I recently read more Wii games are missing European numbers than the other 2 consoles which obviously will affect your data here.
