When in the world did anyone ever say that? As well as the 240 Million one for the Wii U.

Was it before the 3DS' release?

Well this op as well as his only post in this thread were actually really short.

Yakuzaice said: johnlucas said: People can't read. The prediction has always been 50 million MAXIMUM. Not MINIMUM. Hahahahahaha! There was no way for this prediction to fail. It was funny to hear people try to lambast me & they didn't even understand the meaning of the topic. I figured nobody would catch on. John Lucas So you're pretending you didn't say "That's what I saw. I saw 50 million as a possibility for 3DS for the end of the year. The funny thing is...what if it goes ABOVE that?" or this in the Unity thread "I believe 3DS is headed toward the 50 million mark by the end of the year." Guess this is kind of like how you pretend you got your PS3 being discontinued prediction correct because of the slim.

Yeah a possibility. Not a definite.
That's why I put it at a MAXIMUM.
If I was putting at a definite I would have said MINIMUM.

The language is as clear as day.
The phrases "headed toward" & "I believe" denote POSSIBILITY.
I never said it will DEFINITELY reach 50 million at the end of 2013.

You guys are not reading what I'm saying. You're putting down your own interpretations of my words.

You CAN have your laughs about my 12 million at end of 2013 call for Wii U because I put that down as a specific.
You CANNOT have your laughs at this call because it couldn't be wrong no matter how you looked at it.
It only speculated on the possibility of the top range.

This was a throwaway call that I put out to get some discussion going.
To get people to see a POSSIBILITY that 3DS could POSSIBLY touch 50 million at the max for the 2013 holiday season.
For extra fun I put in the thought of 'what if it goes beyond?'.

But after I saw you guys' reactions I could tell that you didn't even get the point of the post.
I kept saying to myself "Now watch these guys get themselves all worked up & not even realize that the all-capped word said MAXIMUM the whole time."
You're so out for blood that you're not even comprehending the title of the thread.
Just looking for any opportunity to pounce because Wii U didn't make my call for 12 million at end of 2013.

But that's just the thing.
The title of that UNITY thread is not "Wii U will sell 12 million worldwide by the end of 2013"
The title of that thread is "UNITY - Nintendo & Wii U Finish The REVOLUTION"
You all are not reading anything. Just reacting.
Just because my 12 million at end of 2013 call was wrong doesn't mean my thread is wrong.
That's a sub-prediction within my main prediction.

The sub-prediction for 2013 is wrong for Wii U but that doesn't mean my main prediction is wrong.
Just because it was slow getting to a milestone doesn't mean it's not gonna reach its destination.
And that's what's gonna be the most tasty for me as this generation goes on.
You all have immortalized your legacy on that thread.
All of the heckling & taunting is how you guys chose to represent yourselves.
As time goes on, that legacy will begin to haunt you.

Everything I write, I write for the ages. I don't write for just today. I write for tomorrow & the day after that.
Those who review the UNITY thread in the future will compare your legacy to my legacy & you guys will look bad in comparison.
They're gonna see who was having a thoughtful discussion & who was just flinging poo.
In the future I will have no trouble requoting what I said from the past.
You all will be too embarrassed to requote yourselves & you will try to run away from your written legacy.

In the years to come, I will begin to pull out quote after quote after quote of my past words & show their relevance to the current situation.
That's why I'm writing so many words now. So I won't have to write them later.
All I will have to do is just pull out observation after observation & hear people say "he was making sense".
What's better is that I'll requote you all's words (the ones you will have by then become ashamed of) & highlight the contrast.
Everything you said on the UNITY thread & any other thread like this one. Everything you said on my wall.
I will put the timestamp on it & show the context. The people will say "they were making nonsense".

I'm gonna love EVERY SINGLE MOMENT of it. I'm glad you guys are going in like this.
So much material for me to use in the future. Ryback says "FEED ME MORE!"
Like Nintendo I have patience & I can wait every single one of you out.
It's just a matter of cashing in those future returns. Just waiting for the payoff.

John Lucas

He's posted several times in this thread, actually, and I was referring to this:

Otherwise, thanks. Yes, I admit that his OP and two of his other posts in this thread were the shortest posts I'd ever seen him make. I just didn't want to quote his super long wall of blathering and I guess it bit me in the rump because you thought I was whining about his OP.

When it was annouced up until launch week.

I wasn't here at that times, so I guess that's why I hadn't heard.

Were those predictions made by JohnLucus?

Actually I think Kaizer predicted that like a week ago
