I've never anticipated NPD numbers so much before. THE HYPE IS UNBEARABLE

The Gamecube´s worst November, before the Wii launched, was a year before, in 2005, when it sold 272K...at that point, the system was practically on its deathbed, with no significant releases.

It´s bad enough the Wii U has been performing worse than the GC, when one compares both systems´first year, but it´ll be astonishingly bad if the Wii U has actually sold worse than the GC in November 2005, considering it´s one of the busiest shopping seasons, Mario 3D World, etc..

He is not that bad how the people here says...

He is not as good as you think, most of us did way better during the prediction league days

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Since you have seen fit to repost this from the other thread, I too will repost my response from the same thread.

VGChartz has estimated a total of 1.68 million through October vs Pachter's 1.7 million. VGChartz is more accurate than Pachter.

At the very least, on average Pachter is no more accurate -- and has been no more "generous" to the Wii U -- than VGChartz.

Looks like a healthy month if no major overtracking has happened. Makes you wonder though why no company has announced BF numbers. That's the bit that worries me. I'm just hoping it was NPD refusing to disclose that info since it happened in the last day of November where as previously BF was 4-5 days before the end of the month (so a week before the monthly sales data is collected).
