I didn't lower the bar, you did bring up that comparison: "Then you look at the software Nintendo is releasing this year, so go ahead and tell me where exactly do you justify it selling better than last year?"

That you don't want stay to your own statements is your thing.

alright, so you latched on to the side point for the bet proposal, got it.

I'll clarify my personal view then, I'm 99% sure they won't hit their target, I'm doubtful they will sell better than  the same equivalent period of last year. In their favor is piracy and some possible lowering of price / holiday deals to quickly move to the new SKU.

I suppose it should sound a lot more reasonable now right?

Well yeah. I agree it is difficult to hit their 20M target (that is shipping), I personally think that is 50/50, depending how well Pokemon and Smash move hardware. They will definitely sell better than last year in the comparable periods.
