wolverine selling 1.9m in three days is an estimate, not a sony victory lap

alinea analytics estimates marvel's wolverine sold 1.9 million ps5 copies and made about $130m in its first three days. sony and insomniac have not announced an official sales number, so keep the grain of salt nearby. the interesting part is the gap between internet mood and buying behavior. this thing spent launch week getting dragged for review scores, ui stuff and being more linear than spider-man, and the estimate still has almost two million people buying it immediately. maybe social media is not a sales dashboard. shocking development.
