Considering the equally dismal sales for ALL their latest releases, this should be sending a strong signal to Ubisoft that they are doing something very wrong.  |
I'm assuming you mean Amazon.com, the US branch of that retailer. But you didn't say. You also don't say whether that's rankings in their respective groups or not... I mean statistics don't mean anything without the context. Is that sales rank of 2062 among all software titles? Or sales rank or 2062 among all things being sold on amazon?
Amazon.co.uk sales ranks are:
SH5
Amazon.co.uk Sales Rank: 573 in PC & Video Games
AC2
Amazon.co.uk Sales Rank: 150 in PC & Video Games
Settlers 7
Amazon.co.uk Sales Rank: 183 in PC & Video Games
Is SH5 four times more popular in the UK than in the US?
On Amazon.de:
SH5 - Amazon.de Verkaufsrang: Nr. 341 in Games
AC2 -
Amazon.de Verkaufsrang: Nr. 39 in Games
Even more popular in Germany, or countries serviced by Amazon Germany.
How does that stack up in terms of popularity? I mean what's a 'good' ranking for a company to take notice of? Number 1 obviously would be good, but that's idealistic, but is a ranking of 39 that bad? Does it have to be number 1? What are the financial implications of those rankings?
