2,000,000 - meh, I hate predicting lifetime, but I wanna be on the table!


Be interesting to see where we average out at.

I'll figure out a mean average sometime tonight.

And Metroid games don't have very long legs of late - after about 9 months it will have sold 80-90% of all copies it's going to sell.

Not too confident about the sales for this one:

First week: 350k

13 Weeks: 800k

Lifetime: 1.1 million



oliist on 24 June 2010

FW: 354k
13W: 917k
Lifetime: 1.51 million

Let's see if I still have the magic that made me #1 of the Prediction League or if I have lost it completely.

There, OP has been updated with mean averages.

I'll keep updating these numbers as we go along.

Seems like I skew a bit higher than the majority, but in general we expect this to do well (not spectacularly, but well) for a Metroid game, passing up the majority of the series. In general, that is.

If it's not a lot of work (I honestly have no idea, I've given up on using anything other than text on 3.0), could you arrange them from highest to lowest, in either First Week or Lifetime sales? It would make the list a lot better for analysing

Edit: It seems that's rather time consuming. And it's not really important at all. Nevermind that.
