Where did you get your Black Ops 2 sales from? Vgchartz has it at 51k for week 1 which I'm pretty sure is overtracked since NPD had it at about 21k-ish.

It's the data that was listed at the time. It has since been changed.

Anyway, I wouldn't assume that NPD is more accurate. As I recall, one of NPD's weaknesses is that they don't track certain retailers, such as Walmart (from memory).

Anyway, I don't see any NPD numbers for Black Ops 2, I see Pachter making a claim about attach rate, which has been combined with NPD numbers for system sales to determine the approximate amount. If you can find something more solid than Pachter, I might listen, but Pachter isn't a trustworthy source of anything. I easily trust VGChartz's numbers over Pachter's claim regarding attach rate.

By the way, a quick check of your "Games Collection" reveals that you play PS exclusively. So I'm really not interested in your opinion of how well BO2 can sell on the Wii U. You couldn't even manage to see the explicit phrase "my resulting worldwide prediction". So here's my advice - if you can't permit different opinions from yours without ridicule, and you have no interest in playing Wii U, maybe just stay away from threads that have nothing to do with your interests.

First of all, I can participate in any fucking thread I want. Deal with it. I follow the entire video game industry, not just Playstation.

Secondly, NPD started tracking Walmart back in July. Before that, they estimated. So you're being a bit of a hypocrite for critizing NPD estimating Walmart sales since ALL Vgchartz does IS estimates.....lmfao.

Last of all I just want to say....grow up. People will disagree with your opinions, this is a forum.  I "permit" you to have your opinions, I just disagree with them. And what's this about "ridicule"? Did I make fun of you or something by disagreeing? 

You can't make direct comparisons or estimates between Wii and Wii U launch titles. It is highly unlikely that Wii U will end up being as successful as the original Wii so that right there is MY reason for thinking Black Ops 2 won't reach 4 million LT.
