Will Nintendo make an annoucement once they have passed the 360 WW numbers? and Will the announcement coincide with Vgchartz estimates?

Its going to be a good test for VGchartz accuracy


Just curious, without getting into a date guessing match...what is your criteria to change your second prediction on your sig?

VGChartz? Corporate Earnings Reports? NPD?

 Edit: And do you stand by your third prediction still with the 360 at 420k lifetime in japan thus far?

Just curious =)


I will not change any of my predictions till they are proven wrong... hehe once that happens please note that I won't delete them and proudly add "BUSTED" beside them

@gebx,

I respect that, but what is your criteria for the second one? aka which source are you going by?

I have a lot of respect for that.  It takes a much bigger man to boast his failures along with his victories.  It's always great to see people who can be fans of a system without being fanboys.

If Nintendo bragged about their numbers on Vgchartz, everyone would laugh at them. They know better than that.

In two weeks or so all eyes will be on VG Chartz

This is what I think will happen

The smaller shops (blogs, lesser know gameing news website) will quote vgchartz. Then the news will make its way to Digg and Reddit where it will make the front page.

Then, bigger know websites (ign,gamepro,etc) will comment on it, maybe even write full articles on the matter.

Then all that will be followed by small blips on major news network (CNN, ABC, etc)

I would really take the beta sign off the front page... I think that wouldn't look as good when seen on national television ;)


Sorry for reviving this old thread, but so far all these predictions are coming true.

Anybody who's been googling news lately would have noticed the insane amount of small blogs and websites quoting vgchart numbers, and the upcoming change the #1 spot for next gen consoles.

I'm still waiting for one of the big gaming news websites to quote VGcharts! Once that happens I'll be watching CNN news waiting to see IOI do an interview!
