December NPD predictions thread (who will win this months NPD?).

[barneystinson69]

Before anyone is wondering why I'm posting here instead of Ryng, it is because he has sadly decided to leave vgchartz, and has decided to give me control over this thread. Hopefully I can do as well as he did maintaining this thread, and he'll be missed by many on this site. 

Now this is all i have to say before I finally set things up. This thread is going to mix my old use of posting a poll of the winner (I will now include the 3DS and Wii U every month, so there won't be arguing over that :)), and Ryng's standard prediction thread, in which I lay out all all possibly impacts to HW sales, as well as important software releases and hardware numbers from the past. I also want to note that I'm still new to this, so if there is anything I should improve, please PM me or reply to this thread, and I'll be more than happy to consider them. Anyway, lets begin.

December is tracked for 5 weeks 

Important releases:

 

 

Hardware Impacts:

-XB1 Temporary Price drop (one day deal $229 and $249 till December 24th)
