[QUOTE="akruan"]So I was looking at game sales because of some debacles in other topics and I came across the games that have sold over one million list on wikipedia
I found interesting because the Xbox only had 6 games that sold over a million. While the gamecube had over 20.
The Xbox 360 has 10 titles so far (11 with Halo) while the Wii has 8 so far in just half the time.
The only reason I'm making this thread is because there is a thread about Metroid for selling 400k in a week and it suddenly turned into a "Halo will pwnz it type of thread". So I thought I would should some perspective to the Xbox followers that your systems even when they do have the best games around, those games will sell less. Your systems will only be recognized in America, while every other system will have worldwide appeal.
Let it be clear though. I'm NOT saying that: a. Halo will be bad. b. The Xbox sucks. c. I'm a sheep.

But 22 games for the 360 have sold one million units. Where are you getting the 10 titles thing from?
oh my god, I gave you a link.
At least be like the other guy and respond to the argument with another point of reference.
vgchartz tell a different sales story.

well out of the two unreliable sources, I trust wikipedia more.
The Wii sells like gasoline before the Apocalypse.musicalmac
lol, why would people buy gasoline if the world is going to end?

It's funny to see how 360 fanboys always say "sales don't matter, it's the game" but here they are "but teh haloz already sold a million".
if we are going to talk about sales then:
Nintendogs sold 14m (more than the 360's whole userbase)
The Sims has sold over 16m
And the Mario franchise alone has sold 190m while halo's only 14m.
I know this doesn't really makes much sense and it's not really comparable but then again, why must you troll halo into a Metroid thread? It will be an awesome game, WE KNOW, possibly even better than Metroid, WE KNOW. But just cut it already. :)
