Looking for Gaming Sales Info

[Ryan Savage]

Hey guys,

So I've been writing an article in my spare time lately and I've been stuck on finding some information I'd like to use to make a point. Specifically I'm looking for some reliable sales data from a couple games in and around 2000 and now that most of the companies that made them are defunct I can't seem to find the information I'm looking for anywhere (including trying to contact a lot of the old devs)

What I'm looking for is

1. How many copies did Pharaoh (1999) sell total?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pharaoh_(video_game)

2. How many copies did Children of the Nile (2004) sell total?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Children_of_the_nile

3. How many copies did the original Roller Coaster Tycoon (1999) sell total?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roller_Coaster_Tycoon

4. How many copies did Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 (2004) sell total?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roller_coaster_tycoon_3

It would be nice if anyone knew but I'm not looking for anybody to do the work for me. Just hoping someone can point me in the right direction at least.

Cheers and thanks for all the help guys!

if it's not listed on the wiki then I think your only option is trying to contact the publishers directly

What about VG Chartz? http://www.vgchartz.com/
They have some good info there. I just don't know if it's as detailed as you need.
