I am hoping to start a vgchartz.com league at thesimexchange.com . It is a stock market like trading place where games are traded like stocks and thier value is derived from NPD sales numbers. Some current numbers: MP3 lifetime is trading at : 503.00 (each unit is 10k units, so thats projecting at 5 million) MP3 Sept. sales : 30.00 (300k) Wii lifetime : 10,640 (way overvalued , thats projecting 100 million sales. and yes you can "short" a stock) Wii Sept sales : 54.32 (543k) PS3 lifetime : 5,800 (58 million) PS3 Sept sales : 18.92 (189K) XBox 360 lifetime : 5731.36 ( 57 million, just UNDER PS3) XBox 360 Sept sales : 41.46 (414K) Blue Dragon lifetime : 90.42 (904K) Halo 3 lifetime : 1,027 ( 10million) Heavenly Sword lifetime : 152.11 ( 1.5 million) I am currently sitting in 604 rank out of everyone and have been as low as 550. So if you are interested in joining a vgchartz league just post your username that you signed up with at thesimexchange.com and I will get you added.

Ha ha, your Blue Dragon numbers are going to be wayyyyyy off.



 

 

those aren't MY numbers, thats what they are currently trading at on thesimexchange.com . I assume you think they are too high and that I could make a big profit by shorting that stock....

So, the Wii is overvalued with 100M sales lifetime in NPD numbers but 360 and PS3 with 57/58 isn't? Meaning every USA:n household will have 2 consoles. Yes, i do see all 3 being a bit overvalued.



Ei Kiinasti.

Eikä Japanisti.

Vaan pannaan jalalla koreasti.

 

Nintendo games sell only on Nintendo system.

@bdbdbd, those are worldwide predictions, not only NPD numbers.



so anyone else already playing? or planning on signing up soon??



Interesting...

If you use the VGChartz current data with simExchange LTD predictions here is what it would look like:
