This is a ridiculous thread. This is just going to be pure guesswork. Look at how the Wii U sold at launch, and now look at how its selling.......no one could have predicted that. We at least need to know how many PS4s will be available at launch and you know....how much it will cost.

Gamasutra did.

Well that was a vague prediction. No one predicted that post-holiday sales would fall below the Gamecube....
You know how many people would have laughed at a prediction like that?

I updated with "Their gloomy outlook was even shooting high compared to what actually happened.".  They predicted a stong holiday, we got a strong holiday (but not as strong as predicted).  They predicted a drop off in momentum, we got a drop off in momentum (but a worse drop off then predicted).
