Unless of course by some freak coincidence you expect 3DS to be flat in the west even tho it's showing 20 - 30%+ drops?

Edit - Not going under 80k means you pretty much expect it to be flat yoy. What's your reasoning for this?

 

Why don't you actually bother reading the OP next time before you start a sales discussion, it's all pretty much laid out for you. VGC are likely overtracked.

And you expect 3DS to be flat in the US/Europe even tho it's been down 20% - 30%+ all this year, which is clearly not going to happen.

***Other Quotes:

These trends don't just disappear, they fluctuate but they don't disappear. April is usually lower than January, and Jan this year was 97k.

 

 

Fact is even if it's FLAT in the US in April, that is still 28k. Mirror that for Europe and you get 56k combined + 20k for Japan (if it doesn't go lower) = 76k + the 10% rest of the world = 83k.

Again, that is if it's FLAT, which is unlikely.

 

 

 

Uh huh, you really don't know that for sure, remotely. 

The chances of it seeing a drop in April in US (like everything does each year) is likely, you thinking it's going to be flat is the outlier here.

"You have no basis for saying no when you're completely ignoring the fact NPD could show 80k 3DS figure."

 

All i was trying to say is that yes, speculation is good (wat you have done with your opening), but its not everything. 3DS is 106k for the month.

Its not exactly flat but its only down about 5%-7% YoY. Just pls learn from it.

edit: Im pointing this out cuz you kept insisting it would be "20%-30%+" down YoY because all the other  months were!
