Illuminating Sim Sales Numbers

Post by Jedi Master »

Got these numbers out of the latest PCG, thought I'd share them.

Total US Sales as of 9/05:

Flight sims: Released: Units: Dollars:
FS2004 (MS) 7/03 677,300 $28,400,000
LO:MAC (Ubi) 11/03 51,000 $1,500,000
Pacific Fighters (Ubi) 10/04 41,100 $1,500,000
Wings Over Vietnam (TW) 10/04 29,300 $823,300
F4:AF (Graphsim) 6/05 19,500 $574,400

Racing Sims:
NASCAR SimRacing (EA) 2/05 47,100 $1,700,000
GTR:FIA GT Racing (10tacle) 5/05 9,100 $291,500

Other:
Silent Hunter III (Ubi) 3/05 57,500 $2,200,000


It sucks that the forum won't display the numbers as I typed them, in columns. :(


Very interesting. Especially F4:AF, as their sales are ahead of the company's projections! I also found Pacific Fighter's dismal sales (less than LOMAC!!) worthy of note, as well as the poor performance of EA's NASCAR sim. I wouldn't be surprised if EA sticks to consoles and we don't see a NASCAR SR2 now.

Yes, a bit! I don't get why they don't let you put spaces in...

Actually, I just pasted it into a text editor and lined it all up, then pasted it back in as a "code" snippet to preserve formatting. Easy.
