Arrogant like a prima donna, aren't you?
First of all, when did I say that I "know their production situation better than they do"? Quote me where I said that, please.
Second, ALL I AM SAYING, once again, is that while I hope these are indeed the numbers they pull off, I'm taking a wait and see approach because Nintendo has missed their target numbers in the past.
Doesn't anyone remember all the articles around June/July 2006 which suggested that Wii production had already started and that they'd have ample supplies of units come launch?
I'm not entering the sales figure pissing contest that this site loves so much. I'm just saying that I wouldn't be optimistic, especially when Nintendo has ALSO warned us that Wiis will be hard to find for xmas again this year.
"I mean, c'mon, Viva Pinata, a game with massive marketing, didn't sell worth a damn to the "sophisticated" 360 audience, despite near-universal praise--is that a sign that 360 owners are a bunch of casual ignoramuses that can't get their heads around a 'gardening' sim? Of course not. So let's please stop trying to micro-analyze one game out of hundreds and using it as the poster child for why good, non-1st party, games can't sell on Wii. (Everyone frequenting this site knows this is nonsense, and yet some of you just can't let it go because it's the only scab you have left to pick at after all your other "Wii will phail1!!1" straw men arguments have been put to the torch.)" - exindguy on Boom Blocks
