The console is only a couple months old, my guy. Back when the Switch dropped literally the only thing worth playing was BOTW, so...
Not to mention you’re comparing a system that’s been out for 2 months to a system that’s coming up to its 4th year on the market, it’s fairly obvious the Switch has more on offer right now...
You can't even cherry pick to put PS5 games sales in good light since Sony refuse to share numbers and gaming articles are painting a grim picture.
No, the Japanese sales data was just one example, also i don't see how many copies sold of any PS5 games in OP?In the OP you have datas about the UK market for example?
Half of the total software sales of Hitman 3 were on PS5? Does that count as software sales for you?
Have you tried to read the OP before posting?
And to answer your question more globally, PS5 software is selling greatly everywhere but in Japan where there are no units (250k total installed base) and no games catered to the japanese tastes.
And infact you posted japanese related stuff in a UK sales thread.
Going back to the Media Create threads is probably the best for you.
It's really sad when people bring PS4 games sales to defend PS5 games sales lmaoConsidering TLOU2, Ghost of Tsushima and Spider
I see your point now, if they started already creating it for PS4 hardware might as well finish it.You just ignored a huge chunk of my point I isoRhythm lol
No offense, but I don't think you guys really understand the tech aspect or the business aspect.
It's not like these companies haven't experienced this same transition through a ton of generations and are just dummies and forum gamers are really the one's that understand.
Just think about the fact that a game "from scratch" nowadays, a large AAA game, takes more than half a decade to make. So the vast majority of games are just building on the tech of the previous game; that's also why the vast majority of games are sequels, because they can even borrow assets. So even if you think that 10's of millions of dollars lost (what losing just ~170k or so game sales represents) is "trivial" (it isn't), it's not really that POSSIBLE to make a true "next gen game" that quickly anyways.

Yes the PS5 is selling because of FOMO and scalpers. Not because it's a popular brand since the PS1. Not at all.A console selling because of FOMO and scalpers will never sell more than a popular console with a lot of high quality exclusive games like Mario, Zelda, Pokémon, Animal crossing and many others. what game you can only play on PS5?

The Switch was in exactly the same situation. Scalped to oblivion.lol ok guys, i will leave you to celebrate in your weekly "a lot of my favorite console got bought by scalpers but it doesn't matter because best sales record/biggest launch/breaking sales!!" cope threads.
50%.I know you are shook right now and can't understand my simple question so i will repeat it again,
10.000? 20.000? a million? give me a number.
I'm actually impressed with how much the scalpers seem to love Hitman 3. Maybe they feel like they can relate to him in some ways so they're all playing that game while waiting for a buyer for their PS5.

What are you talking about lol
Yes the PS5 is selling because of FOMO and scalpers. Not because it's a popular brand since the PS1. Not at all.
According to VGChartz, Sony have sold 4.2 million PS5s so far.
Let's assume that scalpers claimed 250,000 of these machines with their bots. That means that scalpers only account for 5% of the total sales volume. In the grand scheme of things, that's bugger all.
And that 250,000 is a number I've pulled out of my butt just to illustrate. It's likely under 50,000 in real life, meaning they only account for 1% of the console sales (or 1.19% if you want to be really fucking anal about it).
The Switch was in exactly the same situation. Scalped to oblivion.
It's better you don't participate in this thread if it triggers you so much.

Man, get a life, seriously. Thanks. Bye.lol ok guys, i will leave you to celebrate in your weekly "a lot of my favorite console got bought by scalpers but it doesn't matter because best sales record/biggest launch/breaking sales!!" cope threads.
IMO Gamepass has a lot to do with the low sales of Xbox version of the games.
Also has a lot to do with their hardware starting slower than Xbox One. Subscriptions don't sell consoles, software does. If they had a BOTW game it would convince more gamers.IMO Gamepass has a lot to do with the low sales of Xbox version of the games.
The actual number doesn't really matter in this context. The PS5 version of the game accounts for roughly half of all copies sold.Good deflection as always sonybro.
