The precedent is on you to find it. Also, quote what you like. The truth is, every time it becomes apparent your predictions are proving to be wrong, you move the goalposts. If i could be bothered i could find many of your wrong predictions, like the Switch falling regularly to 150k per week WW sales.

If you want me to engage about your previous point then fine. Imo the switch will comfortably outsell Jp 2019 total in 2022. All my other points were to prove you act like you know what you are talking about when you clearly don't. Also, don't try and pretend you originally predicted 15-18m for Switch in 2022. It clearly says 15m in my post quoted from you, for all to see. You are not gonna get away with your goalpost moving this time and no it's not personal.

I can't write down every single time on every single of my posts that everything is my opinion and that every time I am saying the range of 15-18M (last year) or now 4M-4.5M. It is understand by default that I mean the prediction that I am making, the range from the 15 to 18M (when I've sometimes said 15M and not added " to 18m" or the 4M when I've not added " to 4.5M) So don't hang only on the lowest numbers that I've said and argue about it. I've always said ranges between something and something and not making exact prediction by the decimals. And if you don't believe me or something go back to the august thread of last summer and read every single of my posts there to see exactly what I have written not only quoting one post here where. The range I have has been always 15 to 18M (without pricecuts and the shortages fixed for PS5 and XBSX) therefore I can't be named wrong about this because the shortages are not fixed. I can only be wrong if Switch exceeds 20M (with pricecut not happening till end of the year)

" The truth is, every time it becomes apparent your predictions are proving to be wrong, you move the goalposts "

No, I made the range 15 to 18M last year when beginning this argument and made my prediction. I've not added "to 18M" afterwards.

The same is true here with the 4 to 4.5M for japan this year.

My prediction about switch falling to 150 weekly can't be named wrong or right since this prediction was made only if the shortages for this year are present and there is no price cuts. However the shortages are present. And even for this I said "maybe" where you see statement here ? with the word " maybe " ? The certain thing I have said was 200k weekly, and now I am also truly believing that if the shortages were fixed by end of 2021 Switch would have fallen to 200k weekly now.

And I am not trying to get away from anything. If I was I would never answer for example. Instead I am telling you what is the truth. As you can see I am not running from a fight.

The only thing that can be said wrong or right (because of the situation that shortages are still here) is if Switch will make 20M or no this year as I have said last year in the case shortages don't go away.

Also my predictions weren't so many that you talked of.

They were

1. With the PS4 making more than what reached (because I like many though Sony will take better care of it) and reach 130-140M or even more if they do the right things.

2. Switch 2021 prediction of 25M which I was pretty on point (Why are you not talking about this eh ? and saying I have only wrong predictions what about the right ones like this ? )

3. Switch 2022 making 15 to 18M (if pricecut not happen and shortages are fixed by 2021 end) with 20M either one of this things happening or 25M with both happening

Now is my 4 one about the japanese sales of 4 to 4.5M this year.

So my wrong prediction is only 1 till now - the PS4 one (and honestly many many other people also got it wrong because no one would though there will be so big of a cliff for it)

Number 2 is right what you will say about it ?

Number 3 the valid scenario from this prediction is the middle one, since the shortages are present the prediction was to reach 20M at best. And if it pass 20M than okay I will come out and say I was wrong. not a problem.

Number 4 We will wait and see.

No I am not. The cliff is that the next year will be 15M for the year. 

Clearly stated here, by you. No mention of 18m. You clearly move the goalposts. It's plain and simple for everyone here to see. I don't know how you can even try to deny it tbh.

Also 15-25m for the Switch WW for 2022? Nice way to cover yourself! That's not a prediction, that's just about an "every base covered" copout!
