That's a lot of nitpicking...

Nearly half the list already being out or very likely not being out for the fiscal year doesn't really seem like nitpicking.  Could have gotten into inclusions of the first Bayonetta or Watch Dogs if I wanted to do that.

This expansion pack for DQX is not already out.   Wii Sports Club and MHF G5 just released and we don't yet have sales data to cover them.  Hence why both are included.

Watch Dogs is still a big game.  Certainly not as big as the other console iterations but big enough to draw sales.

3 titles are listed for the first half of 2015.  Given that 2 quarters represent that period and 1 of them falls within the fiscal year, by default they have a 50/50 chance.

 

Of 13 games listed, only 3 are possibly off the list for next fiscal year and only 2 has launched.   That's hardly half.

The only significant title last quarter was Mario Kart 8 which pushed sales to 60k.   You implied there were no games for the remainder of the fiscal year to maintain that sales trend.   Smash alone is enough and yet there are far more games that will push or maintain hardware sales from that list than we ever saw in the previous quarter.  60k should not be hard to maintain with that list.  Do you not think?

There's one game that has a chance of maintaining that sales trend and it comes out in 4-5 months.

It's not about one game, it's about the combination of games.
