The next set of earnings releases - covering the three months ending June 2010 - is coming up shortly. By the end of July we'll have new shipment info / projections / release dates. While most companies end their year in March, Microsoft's ends in June.
April-June Results: Timing (to be updated)
Microsoft - July 22 (note Microsoft's year ends June 30 - so we may get Kinect projections for the next year)
Ubisoft - Preliminary Results on front page, Final Data Coming July 22
Capcom - July 29
Nintendo - July 29
Sony - July 29
Sega-Sammy - July 30
Square Enix - "Early August"
Electronic Arts - August 3
Konami, Activsion - August 5
THQ - August 9
Namco-Bandai and others haven't announced their timing yet.
I'll be updating this thread with information on the timing as I find it, and a look at possible revisions.
Capcom for instance (page 19):
Lost Planet 2 Projection for March 2011 FY = 2.2m ....current sales are less than 800,000 and only 25,000 per week. The game will need another quarter just to clear 1m. Can't see it getting much past that. So a downward revision is likely.
Dead Rising 2 was projected to hit 3m for the March 2011 year - probably should be revised downward as well.
