*underline denotes exclusives

NOTES:
Madden is no longer an anomalous success - Multiple properties match its sales
The PS2 is far from dead - Huge install base leads to more cheaper price games for mass market.
Consumers are looking for more Wii Sports - sports games like baseball and golf sell more on Wii.
Exclusives still rule, and Wii rules exclusives - 11 exclusives for Wii (12 including RE4), similar for DS, X360 and PS3 not so close.
The common knowledge still applies - Million dollar exclusives, license properties, inexpensive games for Wii and DS(needs to strike a chord with audience though); make money.

Ok this is stolen from a poster on GAF. And I mean stolen completely. Even his notes. :p

Wow, Turok has 500k. :) I'd say we performed a successful reboot of the franchise.

Shame Metroid didnt sell better...it obviously should have.

And also, if the Orange Box includes all platforms, including those who purchased the game online, that is a sad sad number in my opinion. I really hope that dosent include people who bought it through Steam, which I would assume is a lot of people.

[Dyne]

Yeah, I didn't even notice it was on there. Wtf. It's definitely one of the best Wii games.

[Cheez-Its]

well 2 things...

1. i am surprised rock band isnt higher on the list cuz its newer than guitar hero.

2. i cant beleve people still play pokemon!!! :wtf:

1. i am surprised rock band isnt higher on the list cuz its newer than guitar hero.I've seen a list where Super Mario Bros. was highest on the list!! It made no sense, that game is so old! :confused:
2. i cant beleve people still play pokemon!!! :wtf:Don't lie to us. You love Pokémon.

Price point is a big reason why GH would be selling more. Rock Band with the drums and such costs more.


And pokemon is the shit yo

[Bube]

Am I getting this right - this list is only for 2 days, March 7 and March 8? Halo and CoD sold 8m in 2 days?

Or is it since those dates? If it is, then why isn't Brawl on the list?

Edit: Oh.. Thanks Angrist, for the post below. I'm getting stupider every day..

[Angrist]

I think they mean from March 2007 till March 2008.
