    Don’t forget the cutshare

    29 = (8.7 to Valve) (20.3 Pocket)

    7m are on Xbox, so the count is:

    Pocket = 243.6 m (on 12m copies sold)

    Valve = 104.4 m ( on 12m copies sold)

      Valve reduces their cut to 20% after the first $50M in sales

      I didn’t even think to figure that in, was just doing some rough math figuring the numbers in are sure to change over the next week (methinks an upward trend for another couple weeks at least).

      What even was Pokemon? This game stomps that entire franchise imo (been playing since red&blue).

        Also missing Steams regional pricing, which would be very hard to guesstimate but for reference in the LATAM/MENA regions, it’s like $13.

        They still made a shitton of money mind you but yeah, a bit lower than estimated here.

        EDIT: Also in some countries, the Xbox/MS price was like $1 so again, numbers could be lower.

          Game pass is routinely $1 for three months. You just keep cancelling and waiting a month before you can get the $1 deal again. Or just alternate between two accounts every three months, and you’re paying a grand total of $4/year.
