Well, not much this month. Sonic Heroes PS2 is now a top 10 selling title, making NFL 2K3 the only sports game published by Sega up there. Skies of Arcadia Legends broke the 150k mark, and it looks like it'll stop selling right about there. Sonic Mega Collection on all three systems have been selling very well lately. I think in another month, it'll be the second third-party GC game to break 1,000,000 in a single region.
 
It is interesting how the combined sales of Sonic Heroes on all three platforms equals the sales of Sonic Adventure 2 Battle on GC.

Maybe Sega should just go Sonic exclusive on Nintendo hardware....two less platforms to develop for which means less cost and more profit.

Or maybe they should just stop making shitty games like Sonic Heroes.
 
Yow. Quite a few games there aren't even CLOSE to reaching 100,000 units sold.

Future rare titles? My instincts say yes! :)

I've never even seen a copy of Phantasy Star Plus with my eyes. Perhaps I should seek that out.

Those people who were saying Spikeout would be rare.. they might be right. But I'm going to wait until I can get it at a clearance price. Same goes for VQ.
 
GunValkyrie is almost over the 100K mark. That means 1/10 of a million US gamers have said "What the **** is wrong with these controls?"

How much does Spikeout retail for? 50 bucks?

I don't have an Xbox, but I have a small collection of games that I'm saving...just in case.

Spikeout retails for $30. The fact that 85% percent of all Xbox games are $20 or less at this point surely didn't help its cause.

So if I look at AniHawk's stats right, in the past 5 months there have been 6 new PS2 games, 4 new Xbox games, and 2 new GameCube games. While the overall games sold among the three platforms in the same time is 1.38m GCN, 1.11m PS2, 0.58m Xbox. At that rate I'd guess GCN will overtake PS2 by the end of November, unless I'm forgetting a major PS2 Sega game that isn't also on GCN.

Given all that and the continued sales of older Sonic titles, I'm really surprised Gems Collection hasn't had a bigger push.
 
Okay okay no panic. Sonic Gems'll be a slow but sure seller. Also I wonder how Shining Force Neo will perform. Shining Tears is doing terribly but Neos got much more positive reviews and general shinyness on its side.
 
Thank you Ani Hawk, these numbers are my favourites every month ^^. I love to see, that Sonic by far is GameCube's strongest selling 3rd partty series :). Why the fuck doesn't Sega support GameCube stringer when most of their consumers are GameCube owners ;(?

Really? I don't think it is that rare. I picked it up used last Christmas.
 
Sega's Xbox numbers are looking a bit more respectable imo I still consider Sega GT and JSRF million sellers. Nice to see Sonic finding a home. I thought Gems Collection would do a bit better, but I doubt it cost them that much money to put out.

....Maybe because unless you're a BIG fan of Sonic CD if you have SMC there's absolutely no reason to get this?

I got it for Sonic R and was made of Sonic the Fighters and Tails Adventures to boot. Sonic CD sucks~

Sonic Gems performed better this month than it did last month (which is expected). I think it'll be a very big game during the holidays.

Hey, Anihawk, you should do handhelds. They're all the rage lately, and stuff. :-)
Click to expand...

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: I'll start adding handheld sales once they publish a game for the PSP.

However, I might start keeping track of Sonic Rush in the normal NPD threads.

Hey now, I'm a huge fan of Sonic the Fighters, and I never played Sonic CD. I can see people picking this up for just being a huge collection of games.

...not you too, AniHawk.....*cries*
 
I said months ago that whenever Sega releases a PSP game, I'd start including handhelds.

Well October was the month.

I've been really, really, really busy or just as tired. I'll get to it some time next week, most likely.
 
I have a love/hate relationship with the Sega sales thread. I love to see how they're doing, and hate how they're doing so badly.

This generation, aside from Acclaim and 3DO, Sega has been the biggest loser. Remember when they were going to big bigger than EA? I do, but it seems like the mere thought of such a thing was a dream from the very distant past.
