Statistics of the best-selling games in the past 30 years
"Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi", this sentence should be the most appropriate to describe the game industry, especially in today's market environment where a hundred schools of thought contend and a hundred flowers blossom. No manufacturer can swear that this game will become an explosion before its official launch, not to mention whether its vitality will last long.

Therefore, if there are so many games that can always "occupy" the top few in the sales list in the long history of games, it must be very awesome. Needless to say, there are more than one such game.

The latest data on the pipeline is the statistics of the most popular games from 1989 to 20 19 by the boss of Beauty Channel. It is understood that the player is a first-year doctoral student with a hobby of data visualization. According to his tubing channel, he spent most of his time mining interesting data and making videos to share with you.

Next, let's take a look at his statistics on the highest-selling game data in the past 30 years!

As can be seen from the statistics in the video, the best-selling game of 1989 is Frog Crossing the River, which was developed by Kelemei and sold over 7 million yuan. In the same year, Tetris sold more than 3.5 million, ranking third.

1992 In the fourth quarter, Tetris sold nearly120,000, ranking first. In other words, Tetris has occupied the first position in the sales list since then, and it was not until 20 13 that it was surpassed by my world for the first time.

When I saw my world ranking soaring gradually, I literally got goose bumps!

Even so, Tetris has never fallen out of the top five, and it is really popular all over the world. At the same time, my world has always topped the list.

As can be seen from the data, in fact, during the period from 1989 to 20 10, the frequency of the top five games in the sales list was not very fast, and they were basically some big IP games, such as Super Mario and Poké mon.

Then, from around 20 10, some phenomenal games have mushroomed and never reached the top, such as Wii Play, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, My World, GTA5, Jedi Survival.

Among them, in 20 18, the sales volume of Jedi Survival exceeded 81980,000. By the third quarter of 2010510000000, the sales volume of this game has exceeded105100000000, and there is a tendency to continue to rise.

According to the latest data, the top five sales lists are My World, GTA5, Survival of the Jedi, Tetris and WII Fit.

These data will definitely change in the future, but the ranking should not change much in a short time, unless phenomenal games such as My World and Survival of the Jedi reappear. Of course, what I hope most is the rise of domestic games. After all, I am also a member of domestic games.

Finally, the problem comes. How many such games have you played? Which one impressed you the most?
