It is interesting that Forza 2 saw a greater sales increase than even Mario Kart Wii did. I also find it strange that that both the 360, and DS's games improve more over the sales of the games on the previous console, even though the Wii increased more over the gamecube than either of those platforms have over their predecessor. I guess that shows that the software that the Wii is selling is really to new gamers, or at least new to nintendo platforms.

Under Resident Evil Average you have for platform size 81.73 and percent change 45.97%, but shouldn't that be -45.97% as the install base for RE5 is only 54.50 million which is less than the average 81.73 million of all RE games?
Anyway, interesting comparisons thanks for making the chart!

Thanks for pointing this out. I had just been taking the average of the % change for each game,but I should have been comparing the average platform size to PS3/360 platform size.
You have updated the OP a lot. I was surprised to see that this gen's Pop game is actually up a little bit from the games last generation, even if it is only comparing the sales to the playstation 2 version of the games. I just thought the sales of the game had been very poor, but I guess that is only when comparing them to the sales of Assassin's Creed. It seems strange how many of the games have actually had an increase in sales this gen, there have to be some more that have seen a decline.

I was going to add GTP, to the list, but we don't have the American numbers for GT4P. Have you seen the total sales for GT4P somewhere else? |
GT4:P never released in Americas.
