I mean granted he was right if it wasn't for November and December where they sold probably around 10 million systems. Its kind of hard to predict a system will go from a 1 million global a month to 3.3 and 6+.

It's that hard when you are supposed to be the industries most well known video game retail sales analyst and you've studied quarterly sales trends for more than 20 years.

Extrapolating Q1 shipment figures by 4 and calling it a day is the laziest means of sales prediction ever.

My guess is his whole “esteemed analyst Wedbush Snodgrass group” thing is a huge gimmick, and people buy it as real so he can generate an income from ad revenue.

He’s too inaccurate, and obviously can’t even work a basic spreadsheet.
