For those curious about how a DS GTA would do....apparently not very well: http://www.businessinsider.com/take-twos-grand-theft-auto-chinatown-wars-bombs-2009-4 ~89K
That's a shame, because (shockingly) it's a damn good game. I think though that most people would assume what I did before playing it; it would probably be crap. But it's actually got a very good Grand Theft Auto 3 feel to it. Interestingly, that picture in the article is from the wrong game.
Good point. I just noticed that. Yeah, I was a little surprised when I started seeing reviews for the game (figured it might be decent, but not that good). Definitely deserved better. Maybe it will have some strong sales over the next few months. Plus, if I'm not mistaken, I think it did relatively well in Europe. edit: Hmm...some poster at NeoGAF is giving ranges for some games. Can't remember if he is reliable, but it seems like MadWorld <70K and Resistance Retribution <55K. Come on guys... (yeah, guess I didn't buy them either, but still) edit2: More people bought this: <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/AbIVUgW0t0o&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/AbIVUgW0t0o&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> Than the 3 previously mentioned games combined (or close to it).
