Hi guys, I have some sales data that I'll share with you.
But here's the thing....if you're going to share it anywhere (like the OP, on Twitter, on NeoGAF) please mention that it came from Aquamarine.
It depresses me when people just take the data and repost it without giving me any credit. I have a very busy schedule and life and I'm not going to bother to share data if all sharing data does is depress me. I get flashbacks to how horribly I was treated by NeoGAF moderation and...it's tough.
This data, as always, is courtesy of The NPD Group, and my contact and friend at The NPD Group (no, not the FUCKING CEO) who is so gracious to allow me to continue to share data even though he was treated like shit on NeoGAF by the moderators.
