Woot! Our gamestation got their first pre-order today!!!
First week projections:
85-95k Europe
100-110k Americas
250-265k overall (not including Japan) |
I hope for your sake that this is a projection for only a single store chain and not the entire market.

Not quite. Pre-orders. |
Projection for pre-orders?
I'm confused as to whether you're a fan of the Vita or not. You act like you are, but then act like Monster Hunter isn't a sure thing and really lowball the projected first week?

Yep, my projected pre-orders. I reckon closer to 400k FW for actual sales. I'm neutral towards the Vita. On the one hand, I think the console looks amazing and was rather impressed when I tried it in Game. However, I think Sony are handling the launch incredibly poorly (cost, needing memory cards, launch after Christmas, lack of advertisements), and so I don't feel confident of the console's long-term success. Will I get one? Probably, but not at launch. I need more to persuade me at that price. But I certainly like the console. |
Cone I say this in the nicest way possible, you're not neutral to anything non Nintendo, it's plastered all over your post history. That's ok though, wear your Nintendo badge with pride 
I don't know how you can project pre orders either, surely that's just random guessing on your part?
I agree they've set it up for a poor start though, the PSP was on life support long before DS was, they should have got it out the gate last christmas WW at the latest.

I'm trying to be impartial here actually. I think I'm improving in that respect!
I do own a PS3 and 360 in addition to my Wii and 3DS. I'm looking to get a PSP and a Vita in the future. And yes, my pre-order numbers are just guesses. They were projections based on what game shops in my area reckon, looking at launches of other consoles and how many pre-orders they had for them. I simply increased that number by 50% to get my value for FW sales
Still, 400k FW in the West is damn good. I believe the 3DS was around that, no?
