Halo passed Madden 2004, next up GT3. Probably Sept, but maybe this month.

Two new million sellers are Hot Pursuit and Ghost Recon, both for the PS2, giving it a total of 45 million sellers, with 4 for the Xbox, and 6 for the Gamecube.

Wow. Halo is going to outsell all other non GTA games this generation. It might (MIGHT) catch GTA3 if sales continue to go strong the next two years. Not bad for a game only tailored to FPS fans. :p

Well, it is the flagship title for MS's "ubercool" console. It's this generation's GoldenEye. Not too surprising, but very impressive.

Yeah, I agree. I'm just poking fun at a couple peeps in that Halo2/GTA:SA thread who keep on proclaiming Halo main appeal is the FPS crowd and not really beyond that.

Nice post. I do think there are a couple of things that should be added when you do these though:

Super Mario Sunshine bundle sold about 550k
Gran Turismo 3-A Spec bundle sold about 800k

I think these figures should be added in as well really, it's no different to counting budget price numbers etc.

Thx SC... I never realized MK : DA was such a success. I saw the preview in GamePro for the new one, and I have to admit, I'm more than just casually interested. The chess like game on XBL is going to own.

It's good to keep those in mind, but without any hard sales numbers they don't really belong in a softwre list. Remember, that would add several hundred thousand to Halo and JSRF and Sega GT would become million-sellers - and I don't think those last two should be counted as such.

Yeah, I agree. I'm just poking fun at a couple peeps in that Halo2/GTA:SA thread who keep on proclaiming Halo main appeal is the FPS crowd and not really beyond that.

Ah, OK. And actually, I take back part of my statement. I am really surprised that it'll probably end up passing GT3.

Not exactly, a few games might get into the mix, although only two will have a real chance at long term passing.

1) GTA: SA - will sell more
2) Halo 2 - might sell more
3) Madden 2005 (PS2) - would take a miracle to sell better long term w/Xbox version, ESPN, & Collectors edition stealing sales.
4) GT4 - probably won't sell better than GT3, but who knows.

Did we ever get a number of the number of LE systems released? Otherwise, we have no idea if that number is at all realistic.

Yeah, but those 2 game XBox bundles were regular price, right? The Super Mario Sunshine bundle was like $30 more, as far as I can remember. Don't know about the GT one.

Have you got any bundle numbers? I remember in an old spreadsheet there was a breakdown of hardware numbers- GC Purple, GC SMS Bundle, PS2, PS2 with GT3 etc etc.

Does anyone get that breakdown any more? Bunkum?

Halo Bundle Officially Announced
By: César A. Berardini - "Cesar"
Apr. 2nd, 2004 05:44 pm

Microsoft Corp. today announced the a limited-edition retail special featuring the Xbox video game system and all-time Xbox best-seller HALO for only $169. Shipping to U.S. retailers April 13, the coveted combo features a special "Halo"-branded, green Xbox console and "Halo" jeweled controller with a copy of the game. However, only the best and brightest - or at least the fastest - fans will taste the glory: Just 200,000 of the boxed sets are available.

"This special offer lets video gamers with 'Halo' envy easily and affordably adopt Xbox," said Bill Nielsen, director of U.S. marketing for Xbox at Microsoft. "We expect collectors, as well as those who have been waiting for the right time to purchase their Xbox system, to jump at this unique opportunity."


"Halo" is a futuristic odyssey that challenges players to save humankind from extermination by aliens. Developed exclusively for Xbox by Bungie Studios, part of Microsoft Game Studios, the game has sold more than 4 million copies worldwide and spawned a legion of powerful devotees who participate in competitions, tournaments and game nights. The highly anticipated "Halo 2" will be released in fall 2004 and will change the Xbox experience as gamers currently know it.

Damn :( I wonder why Halo is more appealing to the marketplace than Metroid Prime, they're both equally great games.

LucasArts hasn't broke anything over 500K on PS2? I also think that KotoR will eventually become LA's top selling game this gen.

edit: Can you do a sort by publisher SC? Thanks

Multiplayer. Seriously, the multiplayer (including co-op) is what seals the deal with Halo.

Yeah, I doubt it will. Especially considering how little they are putting into it. Halo 2 multiplayer is like t-bone steak to MP2's multiplayer bologna.

This never ceases to amaze me. This game has been an incredible success for Nintendo. I have a feeling that Animal Crossing is going to become a permanent staple in Nintendo's catalogue, especially considering the broad appeal the title has through different demographics.

Then there's Animal Crossing 2 of course

Given it's current pace, that would be quite a stretch. It's still possible as I can see this still selling for 2 years, but it's not guaranteed.

It's still at $29 though I believe, another $10 price drop will accelerate sales... I'm not sure if it'll hit a million over the next two years but 900k seems like a safe bet. Any 3 year old game that can manage 16k in the slowest month of the year still has notable selling power though, especially given it's nontraditional genre and kid friendly visage.

If they drop it down before the holiday season, it could do 150k + in Nov / Dec alone.

A million shouldn't be much of a stretch.

I really don't see that happening. Jarrod's estimates are probably closer to what will happen (probably 800-900k when all is said and done.) Still, these are some impressive sales and I'm sure this message is ringing loud and clear to Nintendo right now. Expect Animal Crossing titles in Nintendo's line-up for many years to come.

1 PS2 GRAND THEFT AUTO:VICE TAKE 2 INTERACTIVE (CORP) 6,088,771
2 PS2 GRAND THEFT AUTO 3 TAKE 2 INTERACTIVE (CORP) 5,413,245
48 XBX GRAND THEFT AUTO PACK TAKE 2 INTERACTIVE (CORP) 1,089,358
118 PS2 GRAND THEFT AUTO PACK TAKE 2 INTERACTIVE (CORP) 594,420

13,185,794. Just in the United States alone. If you take out the XBX number, it's 12,096,436.

It doesn'ttake into account PC sales either... worldwide all versions of GTA3/VC have moved around 21 million units iirc.

Outside of Sega and maybe Activision, you can't expect big sales on GCN. EA isn't even up there. Why should a western developer support GCN when GCN owners won't buy their products?

By the way, Animal Crossing / e+ sold 907,567 in JPN for GC. What did the N64 version sell there?

Edit: found it. N64 AC: 213,800

Well, 500k isn't exactly the lowest standard for profitable. With multiplatform games, it doesn't hurt to support GC as development costs are minimal and returns can be brought from lower sales than an original project. EA's games for example tend to do well enough on GC, Harry Potter & 007 in particular.... this same arbitrary 500k argument could be used against XBox for JP support or for particular western firms (LucasArts, THQ, VU Games, Acclaim, Midway, Codemasters, etc). In fact looking at the XBox numbers, and applying the same standards outside EA, Take 2 & UbiSoft it seems "you can't expect big sales on XBox" so why should everyone else bother?

I'm just trying to illustrate why it is possible for awestern developer openly show reservations about supporting the up coming Revolution.

Explain...

I would say that the single player in Metroid Prime destroys Halo's single player mode. In fact, the two games almost even out in terms of appeal for that reason alone (IMO).

You know what this list tells me? Microsoft better be damn glad that Sony's doing so well. Bitch all you want about getting hand me down ports of PS2 games, but if the developers had to rely on the sales of the Xbox version alone, you wouldn't see 75% of the Xbox games you do. The sales wouldn't support them.

I really don't see that happening. Jarrod's estimates are probably closer to what will happen (probably 800-900k when all is said and done.) Still, these are some impressive sales and I'm sure this message is ringing loud and clear to Nintendo right now. Expect Animal Crossing titles in Nintendo's line-up for many years to come.

The message is quite clear.

"Do not bother with mature games."
