Forecasts in financial reports are important because they affect the company's strategy and the investors' decisions. It's not like someone at Sony just dreamed up a number during an interview, forecasts are an important part of most businesses.

Did you hear a single analyst opinion that Sony will achieve their previous forecasts? Probably not because people were bitching about outlandish forecast pretty loud. Get real - investors have own research about current situation and this situation is good enough even without this 1,5 million. PS3 is doing fine. Almost 10 million right now. Few months ago you've been talking about 6,5 million as for December 31th all the time. 

Yes, I did in fact. Even game companies such as EA were saying that they would hit their forecast.

And I wasn't talking about that all the time, I merely had it in my signature along with other predictions. Obviously I failed due to the unexpected large price cuts. So what?

If it makes you happy, I also underestimated the 360 and the Wii.
