Hey, I don't want to feel left out. If Mike can do a thread gloating about past predictions, as if they were a mark of the future, then I can do likewise and post how I nailed and missed it. Anyhow, here are some:
* I might as well dump the original Half-Life, because it won't amount to much multiplayer. Talk about being very wrong.
* The Wii will surprise people, and be competitive. I figured price point more than waggle would be the deciding factor.
* The Simpson (on Tracy Olman's show) might become something if it got its own show.
* The Sims have potential to be HUGE, if they are done right
* The PS3 isn't going to be a slam dunk, and clean the house, if the 360 is in the same class as it as far as graphics go (talking 2005-2006 here).
* The Atari Jaguar and Lynx will be competitive in the market, because of their sheer power. Talk about being very wrong. Top consoles aren't on top due to their "sheer power". Marketing, software support, and possessing THE exclusive killer app of a given generation (along with right price point) are what matter.
So, feel free to post your own.
