Grand Theft Auto VI has already reached nearly 8 million pre-orders
There's still a fortnight to go before GTA 6 is officially released but pre-orders for the game have already reached nearly eight million copies, according to Sensor Tower's GTA 6 sales tracker.
The PlayStation 5 edition makes up 74% of pre-orders and the revenue Rockstar has already made — before the game is even out — is believed to be around $751 million. One analyst firm, Circana, has estimated that 29% of all gamers in the United States intend to buy the game.

A number of companies held their earnings calls this week. Nintendo was one, where it was revealed that the gaming giant's operating profit declined 16% this last quarter.
However, Reuters reports that Nintendo President Shuntaro Furukawa said that the company has enough memory or the ability to secure sufficient quantities.
Nintendo is not considering additional changes, Furukawa said.
