Around the Network

All of your console sales predictions are extremely inflated. Also, your GOWJ, Last of Us and GODOWA Ascension numbers will be wayyyyyyyy off



Personally I think the nextbox and Ps4 will have the same prices. Sony will not make that mistake twice...



Currently own:

 

  • Ps4

 

Currently playing: Witcher 3, Walking Dead S1/2, GTA5, Dying Light, Tomb Raider Remaster, MGS Ground Zeros

You do know that your pokemon x/y numbers are low right? If i put you with everybody else numbers (predictions) you'd stand out http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=153584 ... Im just saying that 5.9 is kinda a bad #. Japan alone will get over 4mil. I believe 6mil but thats just me. Jus saying, thats the only numbr to me that stood out! So change it lol! Also to be fair look at this... http://www.vgchartz.com/game/4022/pokemon-diamond-pearl-version/Japan/ (4.47mil) Black/white version is alot more than that!



Ill be shocked if Gears Judgement will reach 4.7m. As a long time Gears fan as well as many of my friends none of us is excited for it. The only reason ill be buying it is because it is gears but I dont expect everybody to




       

Your predicted console sales seem a bit high. I don't seen any system besides the 3DS moving more than 7mil this year, and, with the promise of new consoles this year, I wholy expect the ps3 and 360 to see a sales dropoff not unlike what the Wii saw in 2012, selling slightly less than 6 and 5 million respectively. Wii U is looking awful right now, but I suspect(hope) that it'll right itself during the holidays, going on to slightly outsell the two 7th gen systems after Nintendo releases a few bundles, gives the Deluxe set a $50 price cut, and discontinues the basic model.

I agree with you on the price for the PS4, but I think M$ will launch at $400 as well.

Oh, and you might as well shave off 1mil sales from GeOW, GoW, and LOU, and add 3mil to Pokemon. GoW and Gears are getting pretty tired at this point, and Pokemon is, well, Pokemon; It's gonna be big.



I hope the Last of Us will sell more I'm hoping for close to 5 million copies in 2013.



I think your numbers are somewhat inflated, but in the correct order with the right gaps in between them. In addition, I think the Nextbox will be more expensive; arguably so will the PS4.
