I really love thw narrative that Japan needs to be it's own but then when someone tackles Japanese women exclusive issues in a game the same retards that get angry about Japan not being preserved.

It's a flop, just like the other woke dumpster fire you DESPERATLY want to astroturf with your non-stop >this game was successful ashktually

>>723165060 (OP)
You know there's a lot of people who play games all around the world, at what point does "Over one million sold" become the "New York Times Bestseller" off vidya?
>>723165980
1 million copies at 70$ does not = 70 million dollars. Digital sales take 30%, physical is about the same + the few dollars per box copy for disc printing etc. They have to recover more than they spent on production as well. There's no "seethe" I expected it to sell more especially to retarded women, but I guess it couldn't even capture that market.

Games go for sale more than a few weeks, they already got tens of millions plus the studio is small so smaller budget
Seethe they are going to make more games and this is the fastest selling SH game and just cause they dont report every million milestone doesn't mean it stopped selling
>>723166737 >what does it matter if a studio ships rancid dogshit which retailers can't move, even on deep discounts? >they'll definitely stock the next product too!

Modern companies all post sale milestones constantly because it's good advertisement. A year and a half to remake the money is a retardedly long time because they're in the red during all of that. Companies constantly in the red go under. Good games will recover most or all of the money on launch. Pretending Konami is playing the long game is absolutely retarded and disingenuous behavior. I accept your concession. SH:F(lop) lost.
>>723166979 >Modern companies all post sale milestones
No they aren't, they only report like first week or first month but then stop reporting. Sony leaks show the sales are higher than they last ever reported them. Bloodborne only got reported at 3 million but no announcement for 4, 5, 6 or 7 million
>>723167267 >1 million copies sold means 1 million physical
How fucking stupid are this games defenders. Most of those sales are digital. It says it in the fucking picture that this includes all package and digital sales you fucking idiot. No retailer "bought a million copies"
1m right off the bat great for a Silent Hill game. The entire series has only moved 11m units up til now. Despite what fanboys claim, it has never been a very popular series.

Nobody said anything about them being physical only, dipshit. You're so fucking mad that this didn't flop that you have to make shit up lmao
>>723168352 >Nobody said anything about them being physical only,
But the "overseas" portion specifically mentions "shipped", not "sold". So OP and the rest of you Resetera trannies are just lying niggers, like you always are, always have been and always will be.

Because stores have contracts that if the stock doesnt sell they get their money back. Who you think has more pull in the deal some random game publisher or Walmart that can stock other shit that sells?
>>723166486 >high budget >low sales >seethe they gonna burn even more money on a turd
Yeah im sure silent hill a short message, 2 Remake and F did gangbuster and definetly not less than having the money sit in a bank for 3 years.
>>723168480 >Because stores have contracts that if the stock doesnt sell they get their money back
No they dont, i still see decade old games in stores
>>723168917
Yeah so? You think the publisher want their junk back to pay for a landfill to throw em in?
>>723169018
Sega does that for their 2 mascor brands aka Sonic and Yakuza, so why wouldnt they do it for SH and MGS? Since no SH games been profitable since 3, but they still keep coming.
