I bet VG Chartz could make a bunch of money selling sales predictions.

Actually if you go to any upcoming game in the database you can actually predict the week 1 sales and the average review score... this is something (as it grows and more people participate) that we want to start offering to industry readers as a measure of how well we think games will perform...

So everyone's combined prediction might make it out to the industry? :O

And ioi will face more criticism, which would including MAKING UP future sales numbers.  Yes, I predict some flak there.  They will completely ignore how much off the likes of Pachter is, because HEY he is a "professional".

I personally would rather see a properly balanced set of predictions based on what goes on here, than the comments of the likes of Pachter.  Individuals who were THAT much off individually about the Wii, should be taken with a grain of salt.
