NPD Sep 2018: Spider-Man has largest launch in PlayStation exclusive history, PS4 best selling HW
- Thread starter ZhugeEX
- Start date
Spider-Man is friggin huge. Goddamn.
2 days of tracking and Super Mario Party is #9? That's crazy. Holiday for that game is going to be huge.
Mario and Zelda are FINALLY missing from the top 10. What a tremendous run those two games had. Especially Zelda.
Love that Dragonball FighterZ is #9 on for Year-To-Date.
Monster Hunter World's performance is excellent.

I imagine the list is comprised of various Call of Duties and Grand Theft Autos
We had veritable sources leave Gaf because they were lambasted/heckled in childish ways like this, please let's not do the same here yeah?
Yeah, they are quite efficient. They can juggle several projects at the same time and get them out rather quickly. Ratchet and Clank was 9 months IIRC.
Honestly this is the real takeaway this gen. I'm so glad it's being drilled into MS.
Oh yeah, Labo, not really sure there is much to say. Could still move some units during holiday but Nintendo would have to pump some marketing around it and feature it as one of its big holiday items along with Pokemon and Smash.
People really just don't seem to care for it.

Insomniac has explicitly stated that they do not prioritize 60fps. And after the success of Ratchet & Clank and now Spider-Man at 30fps there is really no business reason to not continue to go all out on visuals. Graphics sell games. Especially single player games.
The best-selling Sony published game of all time is TLOU.
I mean, yeah, quantity is up, but we are comparing the likes of Kirby to BOTW, Tennis to MK8, and Labo to Splatoon 2. Nothing released this year has been big. Everyone knows this year is banking on the last 2 months.
Edit: I misread your post. Pretend you never read this.

I don't see any business case for Sony to release a next gen console as long as they are still capable of what we are seeing this month, and really this year. 2020 seems like it makes the most sense to me.
Take that shit elsewhere, you're not funny and you are just going to drive away people who give us good information about gaming sales.
Why gives such confusing PR though? I feel like it was written to obscure some insider credibility somewhat...
this is really immature guys
People take those of us that decide to interact and give info for granted tbh
People love to talk trash to those of us who choose to go out of our way to help and then get upset when "why did all the insiders leave?"

Odyssey yeah. TR not so sure. It's higher than Rise but that one came separately on each platform and it's below the reboot.
Insiders are nice, but why dont we get real numbers here? I'd love some insight on that
Congrats on Spidey.
It's pretty amazing how the Crash ports manage to stay on the charts for three months (the Switch port seems to do pretty well). Dunno if it'll stay in October but I can imagine it picking up by the holidays.
I expect Spyro to do well, not Crash numbers but it'll do fine regardless.

Well deserved. Congrats to you and the team, playing through the DLC now:-)
Yeah I feel you man. You and Matt are doing good work only for people who clearly haven't ever interacted with you to take several month screenshots of comments you've walked back on to start a 'let's all laugh at them with the benefits of 20/20 hindsight' shtick.
I feel like saying sorry on their behalf really, it's all I can do :(
I really don't mean to be a dick but its weird to see people grasp at every possible straw to make the One X sales seem impressive
Because insiders releasing so much info can get tracked down far easier. Thats why you don't see direct numbers anymore, only percentages you can estimate from.
And the numbers are in the prediction thread.
Very impressive result for Spiderman. 7th biggest launch on any Playstation platform?
That's insane.
That's insane.
I'm still taken aback by Spider-Man doing 37% better than all the other multiplat Spider-Man games combined.
That is absurd.

Y'all should look up the definition of fun in the dictionary.
Come on, lol...the one it had to beat was the 2013 one.
You're being totally disingenuous here.
Spider-mong deserves all that success.
please use these profits to fund Sunset Overdrive 2
I agree, and when I posted that it was in no way ment for Matt alone (love his sales insight on here).
But a lot of people here and on Gaf (the majority) lambasted/heckled anyone that didn't think Labo would set the world on fire. Well here we are...
Sure, your probably right as it's always been that way. I'm just hoping.
Aqua used to give us numbers but some crazy fans caused her to leave.
You should look up the definition of respect in the dictionary, seems you have none of it.
