"To use that launch and extrapolate to say that W2014 will be lower than W2013 makes no sense, statistically."

Except nobody actually did that if you read through the posts.

Though that is true, you were using it to support your original claim:

It was 9k the week before MK, before that it was below WiiU yoy, you need to look back more than 1 week. Also I don't know if you can assume any sort of permanent boost in Japan, sales are too volatile there. If the boost was this weak why are you expecting such a good baseline?

I heard exactly the last thing last holiday for WiiU "Cheaper, more games, will sell better!" it didn't, it sold worse, in every country.

So, to clarify. Using W2012 peak sales against W2013 peak sales to show that W2014 will not be above W2013 as users may have predicted just doesn't hold up  to scrutiny.

Again, I wasn't using launch for anything. My point with that quote is that with price cut (or new bundle, whatever you wanna call it) and games, sales were still low. With the same this holiday, I don't expect much of a difference. You're just putting words in my mouth.
