Derrik Draven Posted August 21, 2003 Report Share Posted August 21, 2003 Is there a website that allows you to find your favorite, or least favorite game, and see how well or how poorly it's done? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogbert Posted August 21, 2003 Report Share Posted August 21, 2003 Not legally The sales data is copyrighted by the company gathering the data (usually NPD). The cost to get access to the monthly report is a few thousand dollars. However, the monthly console sales figures are usually "leaked" in some shape or form on GamingAge's forum... Usually this just contains PS2/GC/XBox/PSX/DC sales, no GBA or PC. What titles in particular are you interested in? Most people are shocked at the sales that some "big name" titles achieve.

Camp Posted August 22, 2003 Report Share Posted August 22, 2003 Here's the NPD site: http://www.npdfunworld.com/ They release data for free when it makes a nice press release (advertising for them) but generally you need to pay them to see the numbers. The problem with NPD is they do not cover all retailers. They don't have access to Walmart or Toys R Us -two of the very biggest video game retailers (in fact I believe they are currently numbers 1 & 3 respectively). I always laugh when I see someone quoting NPD data as gospel when it discounts many major players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan B. Posted August 22, 2003 Report Share Posted August 22, 2003 You can also join the Yahoo Group called "videogamestocksgroup" or something like that. More info than you would find at GA plus you don't have to wade through the oceans of diarrhea that ooze out of people there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
