I expect Luigi's Mansion to do 900k in Japan in its opening week.

I have to say; this is extremely childish. Nobody made any outlandish predictions about the Vita just to downplay it later on. People genuinely thought it would do better. Sony fans need to be less paranoid. You guys are getting worse and worse.

That's not true. We both said 200k for price cut week, although at least I forgot to post in the Media Create thread to voice my disappointment. Not sure about you.

Vita doing 200K? That's nothing. Some One Sony fans with less than 200 posts and Turkish predicted 3.4M and 2.4M for Soul Sacrifice in 2013. But who knows, it can still happen.

Bringing up this is like bringing up johnlucas' predictions as some sort of sign of what the majority expects.

I wasn't talking about the majority. Pokoko implicitly said that some Nintendo fans made outlandish Vita predictions, Immortal pointed that no Nintendo fan did, Rol make a joke about a nonexisting one, and I said that if somebody made one it was a Sony fan.

I suppose it depends on your definition of outlandish. I certainly think a lot of unrealistic expectations were made. I'm looking squarely at you conegamer.

Conegamer's predictions are usually high, but they are that way for all the systems so I don't think he did it on purpose to make the Vita look bad. I still remember his bet about Wii U doing over 100K/week in January...

What have I done? I don't think my predictions are outlandish, on the optimistic side perhaps. But it's the same with all consoles as you say, I don't have any "bias" like so many seem to be thinking.

And yes, looking at the Wii U sales at the time they weren't far behind Wii in terms of sales in December, so staying above 100k sorta made sense then to me. Clearly that was wrong and I'm not ashamed to say so.
