Pre-order numbers

[elprincipe]

reverie said: Preorder announcements are just spin, they won't tell you a lot about real sales numbers. Really, don't use that data.

Well, if they are accurate they are still interesting/useful. As long as it is clear they are preorders and not sales, I don't see why knowing about them is a bad thing. As shams said, it would be interesting so far as expectations, why sales for certain games were limited (they were sold out), et cetera.
