You may do the math all you want, but Stu said it perfectly. You also have to look at which titles were released.

Capcom could've had 100 titles for the PS2 but only a few could've generated so many sales....RE:Outbreak, Devil May Cry 4, Onimusha 3...... And for Gamecube Resident Evil 4 and Viewtiful Joe titles sloped the percentage.

You listed three PS2 games that could have "generated so many sales," but only two GCN games that sloped the figures...

I guess you guys dont understand percentages...

if 2 out of 5 games are, say, 2 million sellers and the rest are 100,000, the percentage is going to much higher than:

if 3 out of 40 games are 2 million sellers and the rest are even say, 300,000

It's not me thats not understanding.

Sony can ship 100 HDTV's to Circuit City and 50 HDTV's to Target. Say Sony reports a big sales boost from CC and a decline in Target.

But in CC they would have 50" WEGA's and in Target they could have 50" HDTV....

Just because theres more in one, doesn't mean thats the reason for the sale....It matters what's on sale too.

Well if you put it that way, the PS2 had 40 chances to have hit million seller games, and the Gamecube only had 5. Which tells me Capcom's games are selling better on Gamecube. There's really no way around it.
