Capcom Sales

[Perfect Stu]

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.

[Perfect Stu]

if I put it what way? the correct way?

Capcom is not going to pump out 40 million-sellers...honestly now, you're reaching too far. I guaruntee you put those same 40 titles on Gamecube instead and sales would be lower. Just like if RE4 had released on both system at the same time, PS2 sales would've been higher than Gamecube sales. That's just the way it is..."there's really no way around it"

Jason, Link. Lets just let the issue drop in peace. Its obvious the PS2 is superior to all

Did I read that correctly?

once again, you cant bring anything meaningful to the topic so you made a half-assed attempt at a sarcastic joke.

I'm disappointed, Jonbo...


and Link, what sales figures do you want, exactly?

the reason why I said "if these titles were released on both systems at the same time, the PS2 version would sell more" is because of current market trends. PS2 has a much higher installed base, and titles that HAVE been on both systems have almost ALWAYS sold more on the PS2. One that did better (or was close, I dont remember) on the Gamecube was Soul Calibur 2, and that was thanks to Nintendo's (smart) move by putting Link in the game.

Is there some way to prove that...? Do we have the individual sales for RE4 and Viewtiful Joe on the GCN and whatever titles on the PS2?
