　“デススト在庫300万本の言い出しっぺである著名リーカーさん、長々と言い訳”
[Twitter: AestheticGamer aka Dusk Golem @AestheticGamer1 / Tree / Tree2 / Tree3 / Tree4 / Tree5 / Tree6]

(1/6) I wish I could respond directly, but right I'm mainly limited to Twitter as I wait for Google to validate my email account for my new computer. So here comes me talking about Death Stranding sale stuff, let me say upfront the source of this is KatharsisT & I'm speaking from

(2/6) memory as I can't access our conversation on this topic right now. Kojima's comments in today's interview fit perfectly with what we talked about though. Death Stranding was profitable, it didn't tank, but it was a flop. From how I understand it the initial sales were very

(3/6) good, it did great out of the door and did become profitable, but the sales tail fell off a cliff after the first couple months, and there remains many printed but unsold copies of the game as of a few months ago in the millions, which is also why more recently the price of

(4/6) game has dropped everywhere, to $30-40 already. Now speaking from something else, an actual slightly comparable point I know 100% would be Resident Evil 6. RE6 did sell well, but it was considered a flop and dropped in price quickly due to too many printed copies. Even tho

(5/6) it was profitable and a success in many ways (it's one of the top selling Capcom games ever), it was still considered a flop by many within the company due to various factors of budget, return, value, etc. DS is in a kinda' similar position, but it is a new IP so it did

(6/7) well enough, but at the same time it had a bloated budget and the return was not as high. There's a lot more I'd need to re-read to convey accurately, but there was major issues internally about the budget DS was getting so it got cut part-way through development. I know

(7/7) it's weird, but there's a middle ground for something to be successful for a studio financially but a flop in a bigger sense. The thing that interests me more is some stuff Kojima says in the interviews aligns exactly with stuff I heard though.

　“長すぎてワロタ、途中から6から7に増やしてるし”
　“読むのめんどくさくさせる作戦かな”
　“そもそもサイレントヒル（のIPをソニーが買って云々という自称リーク）の方は完全にデマ確定したじゃん”
　“300万在庫あったら24億損失出てるんだが”
　“300万本も在庫あるなら昔のWiiソフトみたいにワゴンに山積みやろ”

　大雑把にまとめると“いや最初の売れ行きは好調だったんだよそのあと在庫が出来ただけで、ほら安売りしてるでしょ？”といった辺りでしょうか。
　パッケージがだぶつく可能性については、ソニーのゲーム＆ネットワークサービス分野の売上高が前四半期（2020年3月期第4四半期）にソフトのデジタル比率が余裕で九割超えていた事からもあり得る話なのですが、そこで在庫が300万本って発想が任天堂に通じちゃってるんですよね。

　このデジタルシフトが進んだ現代において後から大量の在庫が積まれるわけが無いだろう事も分からない…
　さすがは自称“著名リーカー”様ですね。

　ちなみに無限ワゴンってのはMH3とか3Gのような、今にして思えば任天堂買い取り保証の実例以外の何物でも無いようなタイトルの事ですね。
　3DSの奴とかカプコン公式が発表してる出荷本数に終ぞ実売本数が追いつきませんでしたし。
