My aunt & uncle run a Mom & Pop store, "The Gamecube Hut", and sold 80k WiiU within minutes of opening.
People buy Playstations for the first-party games anyways (i.e. the LBPlanets and the Grand Tourismonos.).

Sony have pay $$$ for loss of the xbox360 version plus their lawsuits from jack thompson/public which probably will kill Sony faster.DoctorWho said:What happens if sony buys Take Two? Can GAF handle the load?

I'd say it's pretty damn big.
can some of you guys read i was talking about the combo of games jeez.a Master Ninja said:I almost fell out of my chair when Hagi23 wrote that.
C- Warrior said:So if what you're saying is right, then DMC1 sold 6 million units? God-dayum.
I wish GAF had an "best posts viewing mode" for legendary threads.GhaleonEB said:Between this and the February NPD thread, I my amusing GIF collection has gone through the roof. :lol
Absolutely no way. Take-Two has huge amounts of resources invested in multiplatform development. Sony would have to waste millions and millions of dollars on a lot of assets that they would end up discarding or investing even more money in to convert to single-platform development. Same goes for Microsoft and Nintendo, it would not be worthwhile for any platform holder to acquire such a large third party publisher. That's not even to address the redundancy of Take-Two's other publishing labels like Global Star, which Sony would have little use for. I mean I could maybe see Sony trying to acquire just Rockstar Games, if Take-Two attempts to sell of its assets individually, but if Take-Two is going to hang on to anything that would be the thing to hang onto.DoctorWho said:What happens if sony buys Take Two?

smallsoft said:Wow man, just wow. It seems like every week, more bad news trickles in for sony. Whether its low NPD numbers, getting beaten by the Wii in Japan, or losing former 3rd party exclusives....its just bad.
Is Xbox 360 really selling that well?
Shhh.
I really hope there's no more megatons, I don`t think Gaf can take it......
Did he really, i can't remember if that was about MGS4 or DMC4.dankir said:I think what is more important is what will Shane say this week in the 1up yours podcast, he did say "IT 100% PERCENT EXCLUSIVE, NEVER GONNA HAPPEN"
Isnt the PS3 outpacing the sales of the 360 4 months in at a higher price point and it still hasnt launched in Europe yet yeah SONY is doomed confirmed. :lolDCharlie said:it's bombing everywhere! Capcom have been badly burnt by two million plus sellers , so i'm sure that's as big a warning to them as anything and probably the sign that they need to abandon the support of X360/multiplatform in favour of the PS3 alone (which i hear is selling at a faster rate than the PS2 - amazing stuff)
Wolves Evolve said:I love all the locked threads on GAF right now!
I am very much looking forward to playing DMC4 on either console. It is pretty funny. Sony, you have -this- much time to release a Sixaxis with rumble and get your achievement system ready. Otherwise, I will just buy all my multiplatform games for the 360. MGS4 will go multiplatform (I thought this was obvious from the drop in texture quality over the last year in the screenshots?).
Big-E said:Apparently though a large chunk of that number is DMC1. And someone stated earlier that DMC3 was only able to muster roughly 760k copies in the United States alone..

Wasn't the 360 supply constrained all throughout this time last year. Not that I care how the 360 sells as its the software sales that matter.Hagi23 said:Isnt the PS3 outpacing the sales of the 360 4 months in at a higher price point and it still hasnt launched in Europe yet yeah SONY is doomed confirmed. :lol

I think its cool as more people need to play the awesome Ace combat series.dankir said:Does nobody else car that Ace Combat 6 is coming to 360 as well???
THINK OF THE CHILDREN PEOPLE!
xsarien said:Good ****ing God...
DMC was never a true exclusive. It was "exclusive" in that Capcom never thought it was worth porting to other consoles, not because Sony paid for the game. GTA would fall into the latter category, and losing exclusivity to that franchise was, and is a much bigger deal than DMC.
