Wow 65k? Really? I guess that's what I get for taking advice from ethomaz

But still even before ethomaz tainted my prediction I thought it would do more than a 25k increase.

then you should be taking advice from myself

65k for PS3, I swear PS3 was suppose to see massive gains in Japan this Q according to some?

i want PROOF! what type of gains? according to who? why didnt you call em out then or now? i believe its b/c you were unsure of the outcome yourself and afraid to put your word on the line, and once results are revealed do you then leave your snark comments

I can think of 3 people in my head right now (1 already called out in this thread) but no I'm not gonna name drop,

 

example of providing proof ie: also from the same link above

i noticed a perpetrator claiming that this week would be a tie between the two HDs (lol) b/c he assumed that JP would be in the 150k+ range,  i then immediately quoted him and stated what i thought the gaps would be around.   Shortly after being quoted myself i also responded to what JP numbers would be for the PS3, "i still think next week wont be a tie at all i doubt the FF bundle will do over 100k in JP im thinking HW will be a little higher than what it was for GT since SW sales shouldnt be much higher than GT" 

 

gt5 did 400k something and HW was also in the 60k range i believe. . .

Oh be quiet BHR, you really are full of it. I barely know anything about Japan sales so I don't bother making 'guesstimates' hence why I listen to what other people predict, further hence why PS3 did a lot worse than I expected. Post office, ethomaz and another guy all thought waay over 100k.

I don't put my word on the line unless I'm sure of it, unlike you I don't pick a number out of thin air and hope for the best.


damn there goes any hope of seeing any type of predicting or sale analysing from you in 2012, i had thought i'd see more from you after you starting writing sales related articles and with your recent successful 360>PS3 thread.

I don't see your prediction for Japan there. You also said you expect 360 to outsell PS3 by 500k+ next week (ending 24th Dec). Considering this week will have something like a 200-280k difference I'd say that's highly unlikely.

while i didnt provide no numbers, like MS does in there NPD i gave random hints

"doubt the FF bundle will do over 100k in JP im thinking HW will be a little higher than what it was for GT since SW sales shouldnt be much higher than GT"

about the 500k part we'll see about that next week or even when NPD releases Dec. sales, i dont think i will be off by a meaningful amount.  Many prior thought that since last week was 100k difference then this week would be closer or tie b/c of FF we are here now and its clearly mid 200k, they also assumed the week ending 24th would be around 300k gap between the two, in the end i may be incorrect but my claims will have not misinformed anyone based on the whole 360>PS3 in 2011 deal
