So by end of 2014 you will already be over by around 4m. You have shipments down 900k (7%) for the whole of 2013, and then down by just 17% in 2014. I wouldn't be surprised if your prediction requires it to be flat for 2013 as you may have over predicted 2012. Have you actually looked at your prediction in a line graph? |
The yoy drops are likely to increase through the year with the announcement of new consoles. A lot of titles are being pushed forwards on the release slate as well, probably to accommodate launch titles for next gen consoles, this relative and likely lack of massive fall titles will also have an impact.
