who's hating?  I've been on this site for 8 years and i've never been banned.  You got banned instantly.  Good job.  I dunno if a game will sell 600k on PS4, i just doubt splatoon will unless it has a big 2nd week.  I've been following sales in Japan for a long time, not that many games that have big sales sell 4x first week sales.   This is indeed a special type of game that's hard to judge because it's a new IP and it's unique.  I still don't expect 600k in physical sales at least in Japan.

Early reports are that it sold almost 100k in the second week.    Given that and if accurate, how do you project it now?

where is that report?  It makes things a lot more likely.  It seems obvious it would have sold more first week if it wasn't supply constrained if the 100k is true.  Probably would mean it's gonna have decent legs too.    Still not a sure thing at all but with 100k second week i'd say more likely than not.  If you include digital sales it would be very likely it would make it IMO (assuming 100k sw).  We won't get a clue about legs until week 3.  Week 2 is hard to gauge because of supply problems.

If you told me like 40k sw i would say it probably isn't gonna make it.
