The Febuary numbers and in, and they’re looking sweet. Yes, Sonic Heroes continues to be the driving force behind Sega’s console line up, with Kunoichi (or Night Shade, as Sega of America likes to call it) not even touching the top 20. While the sales for Sonic Heroes on GC have gone down signifigantly since since January, PS2 and Xbox sales more than pick up the slack. Here is a list for sales on all three platforms for Febuary:
PS2: 84,098
Gamecube: 76,506
Xbox: 36,544
This adds up to: 197,148 units.
After doing some more simple math, adding the January sales of 199,032 units, the total amount of Sonic Heroes units sold in it’s first two months is: 396,180 units. In other words, Sonic Heroes sold a loooot of games, as that is nearly half of what Sonic Adventure 2 Battle, one of the best selling games of all time, has sold since it launched. It should prove interesting to see how Sonic Heroes fairs on all 3 major platforms in the coming months. Who knows, it might be the first 3D Sonic game to sell over 1 million at this rate. Of course, that’s just a wild hope.
