Realistically they will beat April NPD, possibly by a lot.

April NPD was about 115k. If I'm not mistaken that was for 4 weeks. April sales were already depressed due to the pricing screw up where they allowed the price to go from $449 deals back up to $499.

May sales are depressed due to he new SKU announcement.

June NPD will be up as they'll get the new SKU boost, the pre-order sales, as well as it counting 5 weeks instead of 4.

Agreed. How much tho all depends on E3. If they screw up or fail to bring it it may be a small bump. I'm confident that won't happen tho it took them awhile to get things right internally but I think they probably have it now. Definitly going to be interesting. Sony won't be able to steal the show with just a price cut this time. MS hand them that on a silver platter. Things will be very different this time around I'm sure.
