Not even close. Oblivion is at least ten times bigger than any of the Fallouts in terms of sales.
... and that is just the PC version ...

From their point of view, the folks over at NMA and The Codex are sort of working for Bethesda by helping focus attention on Fallout 3.
If they took $100 from everyone who ever bought Fallout 1 or 2 ... they still wouldn't cover the costs of making Fallout 3.
Fallout 1 and 2 combined for 900k sales when BoS was being made, they're assumed to combine for over 1 million sales now. There's a lot of "same buyer" in there, obviously, but it's still at least 500k sales. 500.000 times a hundred is 50 million, twice the budget of a title like Oblivion or Fallout 3.
So, ehrm...no?
Cool - I love being wrong and learning something! I *assumed* it to be just above PS:T levels ...
