Where it’s at.
Bad news buddy, Spiderman is an evergreen. It's going to explode over the holidays. Spiderman 1 outsold Odyssey just like Spiderman 2 will outsell Mario Blunder
You gotta wonder why some people think that a game is only available to be purchased the day it releases. Like a game that came out in March won't sell any additional copies during the holiday season or something. It's ridiculous.

They can try whatever they want. No one is spending hundreds of more dollars on a headset to play some on-rails horizon mountain climbing shovelware.

That’s still what VR mostly is. If Sony is really hurting and wanting to tighten the purse … it serves them better to axe the entire vr initiative for the remainder of this gen.

It’s a giant fail. Zero consumer interest.
CotM is the furthest thing from shovelware and it's highly ironic someone with the username "Vertigo" is the one with this kind of trash take

I listed the PS5 launch window Sony games with available sales numbers to have samples of everything. Not sure if Sackboy (crossgen) or Destruction AllStars (PS5 only) also have sales numbers announced.


No, because most PS users were still on PS4 and no console in game history sold 6.5M on its launch month. PS5 had the best launch in PlayStation history.


No because according to Sony were dozens of millions of PS4 still active and buying games.
Evidences?

You are still in denial.
I was not crazy… I was just luck to make a right guess because it was logical.

BTW in any moment or post I downplayed the sales lol

It’s still the fastest selling first party title.

Total sales will beat both TLOU2 and GoWR.

GoW only sold a bit more in 5 days because of console bundles and it was in PS4.

See how that works?

Lets cool it down a little, okay!

No need to get confrontational...agree to disagree if you can't see a common ground.

Also try to stay on topic.

No, he seems to grasp the concept that games sell past their release date, he just thinks it only happens to games Nintendo makes.

This guy... the intro goes like this "Sony took a break from firing people to talk about how much money they are making"

...I mean, it is just shilling that he is doing.
Whose video is that, don't want to click since views.

Anyway, always hate Totoki and Toyota CEO.

Both of those dudes are cunts.

Wonder where this kind of energy was for Microsoft during their financial report, they had very significant layoffs this year as well.

Regarding "I listed the PS5 launch window Sony games with available sales numbers to have samples of everything. "
Yes, they are in my post and these are oficial numbers. With a quick google search you can find the sources.

Evidences?

Regarding "Not sure if Sackboy (crossgen) or Destruction AllStars (PS5 only) also have sales numbers announced."
I have no idea about their sales. I assume aren't stellar.

Evidences?

Regarding "No, because most PS users were still on PS4 and no console in game history sold 6.5M on its launch month. PS5 had the best launch in PlayStation history."
Yes, you can see the source of PS5 having the best launch ever on its wikipedia page and selling less than 6.5M on its first month.

Evidences?

Regarding "No because according to Sony were dozens of millions of PS4 still active and buying games."
Sony Fiscal Year reports released after PS5 release where they highlighted record engageement numbers for PS4 and the 'we believe in generations' Jim Ryan interview when he explained why they were going to keep supporting PS4 during years after the release of the successor in the same way they always did witth all their consoles.

So you have no ideia what it should sell just like me.
It is your assumption vs mine assumption.
We know what happened last time in the other thread with these assumptions 🤷‍♂️

Like I said I don't see any evidence of userbase interfering in know popular big IPs.
It will actually move hardware to match it usual sales instead of lose sales due the userbase.

The exception is when there is not enough supply to move hardware.
In that case the userbase indeed slow the sales of these games.

Ragnarok, Miles Morales, GT7, etc should sell the same or even more if launched today exclusive to PS5.

Regarding all the other topics it's the factual, official numbers I menioned vs your assumptions/fants.

We know what happened last time in the other thread with these assumptions 🤷‍♂️
The same than this time: I share factual data that can be verified as the reality and you keep rejecting it because you prefer to believe in fantasies with no factual data to back them than to accept facts.

Sure, if you discount the ability of consumers to buy relatively more expensive hardware to play the game. Existing users - no problem. Spider-Man fans who buy a platform for the game (no real reason to own a PS5 before for this subset) - some will be able to afford a PS5 and some won't be, inherently limiting sales potential to a point.
