![]() ![]() NHL doesn't outpace GoW, but worldwide ice hockey just doesn't touch baseball. And now that the series is multiplat including seems impossible even at a glance that GoW or anything else is outstripping it.Ĭertainly GoW sells more consoles in in the PS5 era since MLB is "free" on Xbox and available on Switch and GoW is not But before that if you wanted a real licensed baseball game there was only once console that mattered.Įither way, you know the game is really important to Sony's bottom line if Sony of all companies would rather become an Xbox and Nintendo developer than lose it! ![]() Those Wikipedia number seem dubious at best, but I'm having a hard time finding numbers overall for the series, and I wonder if they're releasing them at all, yet I know I saw some numbers at some point, probably on Push that were pretty big.
