This just in: GTA: Chinatown Wars to sell lots

[wraggster]

The release of Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars on March 17 is probably going to be A Big Deal™. As the coming together of the world's current favorite console and one of the most mega franchises out there, it's an event that threatens the very fabric of the space-time continuum should see a silly number of DS carts snapped up.

But how many? Take-Two will reveal its own expectations in its fiscal 2008 earnings report tomorrow, but for now analyst Mike Hickey of Janco Partners is calling five million copies sold between March 17 and October. That's a zany figure, but this is GTA and the DS we're talking about here: loopy numbers are nothing new.

I.. doubt they'll be that high. But you never know.

I'm the sure the game sill millions of copies, but Rockstar would have done better if they had the game on shelves by Black Friday.

I'll be looking forward to playing this game on my DS and I think it's possible for the number of sales to reach that high.
