Yep, made a thread about it. I think this is being done to make the release schedule look better than empty...

These numbers were leaked as Famitsu last week and ended up being wrong. Give it another day and we'll know.

According to the guy who posted them, the leaked numbers came within 5% of the final figures for the past weeks, so they are good to work with.

Were the OP numbers supposed to be a leak from Famitsu? Because if they were, and if the numbers here - http://blog.livedoor.jp/htmk73/archives/2858090.html - are the actual Famitsu numbers, then this guy's numbers here are on average 10% off Famitsu, not 5%. Yes this may be more precise than the Japan Preview for some games, but the preview is an educated guesstimate based on a little data from one store and past patterns, this is supposed to be a leak (?)



Currently Playing: Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclocked, Professor Layton and the Curious Village

Anticipating: Xenoblade, The Last Story, Mario Kart 7, Rayman Origins, Zelda SS, Crush3D, Tales of the Abyss 3DS, MGS:Snake Eater 3DS, RE:Revelations, Time Travellers, Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney, Luigi's Mansion 2, MH TriG, DQ Monsters, Heroes of Ruin

They were that accurate last few weeks, don't really know how they get them, probably an insider guy using preliminary figures from Famitsu. I also heard that they slightly altered them to avoid troubles, don't know if that makes sense or not, but they did come close, they have some data available, this might be a more educated guesstimate than the preview.

the early numbers are nice though, even if you can't take them as exact. They don't seem to include every game in the top 10 though, but for the games listed it is nice to get an early look.
