Halo isn't the best selling game of all time. Super Mario 3 is. It sold about 50 million copies while Halo has sold about 10 million. It's not even close.

Nope your wrong, it is The Sims for PC Windows.

And on the current consoles it is Halo 2 I bet.

The GC didn't even have a strong lineup though. I mean it didn't ship with a Mario game which was really the beginning of the end. Luigi's Mansion was just a cute tech demo.

They came out with this while "we can be hard core" attitude but RE3 was aweful. Plus that was pretty much it for hard core titles that were exclusive.

Wrong.

Source
It is widely regarded as being the best-selling video game of all time, but this is not the case; in actuality the original Super Mario Bros. is, at 40.23 million copies compared to Super Mario Bros 3.'s 17.28 million (as recognized by the Guinness Book of Records[1], based on data given by Nintendo).[2] It is, however, the best-selling "standalone" video game, i.e., not bundled with a console.

Now according to ]guinnessworldrecords.com, Super Mario Bros. 1 is the best selling video game today with 40+ million copies sold.

That has to be out of date because The Sims was listed as the best selling only a few months ago.

RE3? Do you mean RE4? Because that was criticalyly acclaimed as a masterpeice and considered by many to be one of the finest games this generation.

RE4 was freaking great. It's tied with Metroid Prime as the best Cube game.

At any rate, it isn't Halo. Or Halo 2.

I'm pretty sure GTA has way outsold Halo as well.

I'd be surprised if Halo or Halo 2 were even on the top ten list of all time.

I think I did read however, that it was the fastest selling game ever. The biggest opening weekend ever or something.

Nope I mean RE3 cuz you know RE4 came out 4 years after the launch of the cube so I wouldn't really call that a launch title now would you?

Well in the case of the cube I guess you could.

[ort888]

So what is RE3? Resident Evil 3 wasn't a cube launch title? RE3 was a PS1 game and got directly ported to the Cube about two years ago.

I'm confused.

Sorry I mean Resident Evil. it was announced at the cube launch as the hard core title with more to come. RE didn't sell well and RE2 and RE3 where major bombs. No other hard core titles that are cube exclusive have come out.

Yes RE4 cleaned things up but 4 years later Nintendo cornered itself into the kiddy market already. The same happened with the N64 and Conkers.

[ort888]

REmake didn't sell well, but it was fun and well recieved.

I don't think anything has sold well on the Cube... other than a few first party titles.

"Died"? The Xbox barely has more sales than the Cube. Put both of them together and they've still only sold a fraction of the amount of PS2s. Don't try to put the Xbox in with the PS2; it's much closer to the Cube than anything else. Although the Cube is actually profitable...

Money is not their actual goal at all.

I heard that the Nintendo Revolution will be a device that captures the energy in children's laughter and sends it through the power lines to Japan where it will be used to power a giant robot that will destroy the Sony headquarters.

I can pretty easily think of someone who spends a lot more time in this thread.

Why bring up your fantasies about Sony dominating a market? So far you've said nothing expect for pure speculation. If these rumors about a Gamecube class GameBoy are true, Sony is screwed. They lose the position of having the most powerful system on the market, which is really all they had going for them.

I don't have a problem with Sony as a company. What annoys me is fanboys pretending the PSP is something that it is not. I predicted a few months back that Nintendo would strike back with a powerful and the DS was just a stop gap. The DS was never the high end pillar, it was the low end from the look of these rumors. Sony may have been targeting the wrong system this whole time. If there is any substance to these rumors, Nintendo may be about to school Sony in the handheld market. You can't ignore that. If its true, pure genius on Nintendo's part.

Please tell me you have the intellect to understand something as simple as that.

You wanting that shows the fanboy reality you are living in.

What I can tell you is that in Japan the PSP has been outselling the DS for the past 4 weeks. That is the only number released so far so if you want to go ahead and discredit that go right ahead

Since you cant read. ill just put it here. forget worldwide sales since you continue to whine about Sony's pathetic operational capability for a devicee announced long before the DS.

Worldwide:
PSP = 800,000 - 1,000,000
NDS = 2,800,000

Japan:
PSP:800,000-1,000,000
NDS: 1,400,000

Sure the PSP is outselling the NDS on a week-to-week basis. But total sales figures(worldwide and japan) show that the NDS is still in the lead. Swallow YOUR pride and admit it. NDS has sold more than PSP, for whatever reason.

Why week-week sales dont matter....
For a brief period , when the GameCube's price was dropped to $99, it started outselling the PS2. did it matter ? ... No.

NDS has sold more units in Japan than PSP.
NDS has sold more units worldwide than PSP.
i got numbers to show for that claim. you got speculation and week-to-week sales figures. if i wanted week-to-week sales figures, id ask. total sales in Japan and worldwide, and still in favour of Nintendo. If and when the PSP overtakes the NDS in total sales figures, ill admit it.... not a big deal in acknologing reality.

How about tracking week-to-week based on the respective times since the units were launched? THis is like when you read "Such and such movie is the biggest grossing movie ever" when in fact nobody factors in INFLATION.

Only 488,000 PS2's have been sold, 241,000 XBoxes, and 114,000 Gamecubes... Looks right to me! Wow... more Macs are sold a quarter than all the current gen game systems have sold so far! Awesome!

I would go and check you half truth and come back with some better data. I don't know where you got your numbers but the last I checked XBox was at 23 million, Gamecube was at 21 million, which is a bit bigger than your numbers.

Maybe you should post some numbers then.

Oh thats right, you don't have to, because actual data is for fanboys. Silly us.

[goMac]

Well, in since no one seems to be able to find actual numbers I figure I'll post some. The best I can find right now is in early 2004 with the Gamecube actually edging out the XBox:

Worldwide
PlayStation 2 - 70 million
Xbox - 13.7 million
GameCube - 13.94 million
Game Boy Advance - 49.42 million

http://forum.pcvsconsole.com/viewthread.php?tid=8498

You can see the Gamecube spanked the XBox in Asia.

I'll keep looking for more up to date numbers.

[Disgruntled Head of C-3PO]

Who cares, you feel better if the cube sells well or not? I don't.

How bout you look up game sales for each console also

At any rate, once again this thread is about the PSP:

"The PSP's North American debut is supported by 24 games available at launch from most major publishers, as well as a variety of accessories"

How many for the DS again?

To finish things up as of 2/8 of this year:

http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/busine...intendo08.html

Playstation - %62
XBox - %21
Gamecube - %18

Oh yeah. Looks like XBox is owning Gamecube there.

If anyone says again that the XBox is completely outselling the Gamecube I swear..

None of the games on PSP are really headliners. I don't think this rumor about the GB2 is just coincidence. It may damper sales of the PSP.

like i said earlier...boohooo for sony. The PS2 was released a whole year earlier than XBox or GameCube....does that change the current facts ? PS2 is still the #1 selling home console.

If sony could not supply and ship as many PSPs as it hoped....sucks to be them. the NDS has still sold more and considering it's got a head start (in all markets), and a lower price point, economics dictates that it will maintain that lead.

like i said, keep your 'ifs' and 'buts' to yourself.... they dont matter, when the question is about the number of total units sold worldwide.

And when i say worldwide, i mean if the console has shipped anywhere. if sony cant make PSP...i dont care. that dosent change the number of PSPs in consumer's hands on this planet (worldwide). since your such a cry baby, i narrowed it down to be in favour of sony, and limited the geography to Japan.... and guess what...the NDS has STILL SOLD MORE UNITS THAN THE PSP !!! good lord...get that fact through your brain.... the NDS has shipped and sold more units than the PSP, in Japan and worldwide.

See...loook.... im doing it here.....the PSP is outselling the NDS on a week-to-week basis. there no thing wrong in admitting it. swallow that pride and admit the fact. both starman and starwars boy.

The half truths are coming from you. Now that you have the figures right, what exactly did I say that wasn't totally true? The Xbox just passed the Cube in 2004.

EDIT: Here are the up-to-date figures:
PS2: 81.39M
Xbox: 19.9M
GCN: 16.02M

4 million units is nothing to sneeze at.

I really hope your degree isn't in math. Let's assume these figures are correct. If 4 million units is nothing to sneeze at, what exactly is 61.5 million units? That's about how many units the PS2 is ahead of the Xbox. What is so hard to understand? The Xbox is much, much closer to the GC than it is to the PS2. There is one winner this round: Sony. You're making it seem like Nintendo is dead in the water while Microsoft is neck-and-neck with Sony. That's completely untrue. I don't care if you're serious, tired, or seriously tired -- you need to get your facts straight.

You said this:

The part in bold makes it seem like the Xbox and PS2 own the console business. If the GC is dead, the Xbox is either dead or on serious life support.

I said that the GC is a dead platform because the GAMES SUCK FOR IT.

You can keep saying that, but it still won't be true. It certainly has less great games than the PS2, but it has the very best game of the three consoles (Wind Waker) and some other great ones as well (Metroid Prime, Paper Mario).

I don't see NEARLY as many units of Super Mario Sunshine selling vs. Halo 2. Do you?

Even Alanis could appreciate the irony here! In your penultimate post, you wrote this:

Seriously - how can you compare two horribly skewed numbers like that and call it fair?

Now you're comparing Halo 2 to a two-year-old game! Still amusing...

[starman]

You took my quote out of context. Not surprising since you have nothing else to go by so you pull stuff out of context. yourself.

Hawkeye was trying to compare "worldwide sales" numbers when the PSP hasn't even launched in Europe and the US yet. YOU took the quote and turned it into a generic statement.

But...if Super Mario Bros. could be the "best selling game of all time", I suppose how old a game is shouldn't matter, SHOULD IT?

Pwned.

Um, you mean it isn't a generic statement? IOW, you're saying it's OK to compare two dissimilar numbers unless it paints the PSP in a bad light? Who's the fanboy now?

The way you said "selling" implied you meant currently. Obviously, Halo 2 is selling better than Super Mario Sunshine at the moment since the latter is over 2 years old. Most games don't sell as well years after their release. However, now that you mention it, it appears that Super Mario Sunshine has outsold every Xbox game that doesn't have Halo in the title. The same is true for Super Smash Bros. Melee, Mario Kart: Double Dash, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, and Luigi's Mansion.

Indeed. For all the talk of Mario, Zelda, and Metroid being the only things keeping the Gamecube alive, I think it's pretty clear the same could be said for Halo on the Xbox.

So now SWG wants everyone to stay on topic? Hmm... I wonder which game(s) are going to sell the PSP. My guess would be GTA.

GC Nintendo Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker 1.75
GC Nintendo Luigi's Mansion 1.60

So Halo 2 sold almost twice as many SSB:M and you say that GC games sell better?

TWO Xbox games sold over 3 million. NONE of the GC games did.

Spin? More like FACT!

The Cube has blockbusters and flops with little in between. The Xbox has more games that sell well but are not blockbusters.

I read somewhere that the Xbox has the highest games to console ration of the three consoles.
