| VideoGameAccountant said: "I never said "impossible" to begin so straw man much ?" "Still doesn't make you any less wrong for thinking that Nintendo shared sold through numbers instead of shipment " *snip* Your post is the most pathetic thing I've seen and you keep digging this hole for your self. I love how you say I can't read quarterly reports when all the information I provided you is from quarterly reports and you keep getting these things wrong. You keep adding some weird sentense at the end of your paragraphs like "distress much," like some childish projection. And you still bring the shipment vs sales thing up even though it doesn't matter. How about you provide that source I asked you for in the second response. Also, the 3DS sold 1.07 million in Japan by Q2 2011 while the Switch sold 1.35 million (despite massive supply issues) in the same time frame. As of September, the 3DS was ahead by 180K life-to-date. In the US and Other, the Switch is up in both the 1st full fiscal year and LTD. The only metric the 3DS is ahead by was Japan's LTD sales. August is also part of Q2 meaning you don't understand accounting periods. But please, tell me how its impossible for the Switch to not outperform the 3DS when it already is in every region. At this point, your post only deserves ridicule. I've shown you the numbers 10 ways from Sunday, but you won't listen because they don't confirm your theory. Switch can't beat 3DS despite it beating 3DS in the same time frame. You fail to understand that projections are not necessarily exactly what the company will do and that they are incentivized to beat it. Others have already pointed out how you move the goal post and how you over-rely on projection. Not much reason to continue beside to mock your ramblings. |
Keep playing that internet strongman mentality ...
It's hilarious you got so easily flustered by me pointing out that you were wrong in that Nintendo reports "sold" numbers instead of "shipped" numbers and it's sad that it wasn't even me who hurt your ego but it was lawlight who initially cornered you into this pitiful state ... 
(my projections about you are right considering how you're one who started laying down ad hominem so keep losing your cool LOL)
@Bold Of course shipped vs sold doesn't matter especially for a so called "accountant", it must not be the reason why this site was created in the first place to distinguish between the two ... /sarcasm (continue on with your revisionism since it's a good sign that your in the third stage)
I've got even better data than you. this site shows that the 3DS beat the Switch in it's first August in the US so Switch's winning streak is coming to an end or is already at an end. Both systems will likely be close for September and October too in the US but let that sink in your head for a moment that the 3DS did this all in just a price cut with 3 more notable games yet to release. 3DS's first holiday in the US was by FAR it's best and it shows since 2/3 games released in that region spiked 3DS hardware sales during the month of November and December to the high heavens. It is very likely that the 3DS will start catching up to the Switch in the US when we consider that one, 3DS's best performing holiday in the US was it's first one and two, the 3DS is starting to perform closer to the Switch in the US after it's price cut ...
The same reasoning applies even more so for Japan with the addition of Monster Hunter Tri for the 3DS ...
Switch may come out on top in the US compared to the 3DS at the end of it's first calendar year but it'll be a closer match up than you think and 3DS will come out ahead comfortably against the Switch in Japan which just leaves Europe ...
Again with the straw man, I'm not surprised since it's a recurring theme from you but the Switch is currently not outperforming the 3DS at a similar point in time in every region when you just acknowledged that the 3DS is ahead in Japan so you just contradicted yourself ...
It's obvious at this point that you fail in your argument since it's rife with denial, ad hominem and most importantly contradictions ...
