>western game or square enix gay shit sold 2m-3m copies
1.5 mil copies in a week is never a bad score.
But what (You) elementary school dropouts never seem to get is that the scope and budget of the game determines whether such sales are financially profitable or not.
For example, Square-Enix was about to go bankrup with the FF15 "only" selling ~10 million copies within the first couple years.
However, they skyrocketed back in the game thanks to this small budget game, Nier Automata, selling like hotcakes, as in just a couple Mil at first, and steadily more and more as it got ported. This was solely because less cash was burned on marketing and whatnot, and the development budget was very modest, so it started instantly printing money for the publishers.
