Like stop, the posters that are saying this silly stuff now are trying to realign themselves with "if it doesn't reach 160, we we were right lol". No, it will not be ignored that many of you were certain it wouldn't even reach 150. We know you are hurt, so reminder @Norion you once mentioned 140 million lol. You have no room to callout anyone that predicted 170, which includes you. The cliff never came and they along with you were wrong. Several people predicted the 13.5 million wouldn't be met unless they had something up their sleeves. It was leaked (the one Nintendo & GameFreak acknowledged publicly) that Pokemon ZA was ment to release late 2024. It didn't and that might have cost it. Regardless your initial predictions or anyone else's initial predictions won't be swept under the rug because your feelings are hurt over the cliff never coming and how many times your predictions needed to be adjusted up just like the more optimistic predictions had to be adjusted down. So let's get out your feelings and stop running this hilarious victory lap, trying to callout others. You can't do that when you were so far off base also. |
I mentioned 140m being the absolute minimum for it back in 2021 with me expecting it to most likely end up in the 150's and having 170m as a high end expectation back then is completely different from thinking as recently as this year that that was still a possibility or even likely to happen. It's humorous that you of all people accuse someone of having their feelings hurt with how often you lose it over someone being negative towards Nintendo.
I'm not hurt at all really, I'm just enjoying myself and I've been pretty accurate with the Switch overall since I've been saying I expected it to either barely miss or barely beat the PS2 for a while so I have no idea what you're referring to with me being far off base with it. Like I expected it to be a big success as early as April 2017 so thinking I wanted it to fall off a cliff and am hurt that it never did till now is completely baseless. I've literally said that I think it'd be cool if it beat the PS2 and broke the record so really I have no idea where this nonsense is coming from.
