November NPD: Rayman Origins sales
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
According to Eurogamer, Ubisoft’s Rayman Origins sold just 50,000 copies in the U.S. last month. That’s across all three platforms – Wii, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360. This is pretty disappointing given how the game has been universally praised.
