its closer than a bit over 400k though by Oct 5th :0

(BTW, i wasnt actually agreeing with Jran statement as i think he only looked at vgc #s, could be wrong!

yeah it's fairly obvious to me hes basing it off of the chart numbers which clearly state 421k, hence my response to him.


Yeah i know, i was teasing and giving out the facts. Thats one hell of a round up though XD 420k ⇒ 500k!!!

Yeah those pre order numbers are just getting really bad now, No way CoD or Halo are that low

COD peaked a while ago, cant see the numbers improving. And Halo is just a collection of older games are people really expecting it to light the charts on fire?

I don't expect Halo MCC to "light up the charts"......... who am I kidding arguing over these joke numbers isn't even worth the time

He must be over the moon that the WiiU has almost nearly 8 million.

Yeah Smash is too low given what we know, but good HW sales

Its about right, SSB has high digital sales, US has 135k digital (thats huge), im still waiting on Japan #s. Europe i think might be undertracked by alot.

SSB now seems about right.

2.4M (retail) + 0.4M (digital) looks good considering the 2.8M announcement.

But I still can't understand about FH2 in USA.

It was 244K before NPD says '<120K', and it got adjusted to 177k. I just don't get it.



Prediction: End of 2015 Hardware sales (as of January 20, 2015)

Wii U: 12.1M | XBO: 19.8M | PS4: 36.0M | 3DS: 58.5M | PSV: 11.7M

You would have to be a fool to think it WON'T light the charts on fire.



Won bet with t3mporary_126 - I correctly predicted that the Wii U's LTD at the end of 2014 would be closer to 9 million than 10 million. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=6673287
