Don't do this
Hmm?
Mass Effect is #5 for the year (January - April), and Persona 5 isn't in the top 10.

How does this translate to unit sales, considering P5 is $60 retail and the previous PS2 games were cheaper for their release?
I expect it to be higher unit-wise as well, just that the use of "packaged dollar sales" seemed like a particular specific term to be used.

Kingdom Hearts re-re-release charting...and people still think 3 will bomb/series needs reboot.

Surprise Zelda is third, well maybe not too surprise.
Still need to buy Persona 5, but probably gonna wait until the future. Gotta a feeling it might get a Golden type game

That's great for it's future and publishers.
It was released on BC for XBO and put on sale IIRC.
So naturally it sold a bunch. Not to mention it's a fan favorite.

Wow Persona did great.
thats blops 2, not 3
It's a rif on the title of the thread.
The NES is the #2 console in North America
Nintendo are the Stewards of Nostalgia.

Definitely best top 3 in years, damn. Congrats to Nintendo and Atlus.
This list actually gives me hope for the industry.
That would seem to be the implication, though the article doesn't confirm it.

Oh shit @ Persona. That's a mighty good result. I think P4G really did help build franchise momentum, even if it was on an unpopular system.
Nier and Persona both performing so strongly this year has just been music to my ears.

Man, Japanese games are killing it this year. Such a nice change from the usual rather predictable outcomes.
It's going to be pretty interesting to see how the Switch holds up for the rest of the year as well... Looking very promising!

I guess since P4 was $40, and P5 was $60, P5 getting five times the revenue means it sold 3.33 times as many units.
From humble beginnings...

Persona 5 is the real winner here. Persona 5 Crimson exclusive on Switch my ass.
Does it even say which Publishers contribute to the metrics?
PC sales according to NPD are down 57% for a measly 11 Mio $
PLAYERUNKNOWNS BATTLEGROUNDS alone has 1.8 Million sold until first of may (dont know the exact cutout date for NPD)
If we go for the normal 60% of users from the US, thats 1.08 Million copies for that timeframe.
So 32 Million $ from PUB alone.
