How about compare how well Fable III is doing compared to Fable II. That'll be much more sensible and relevant.

There is no Fable II data so do the math. He's comparing it to highest selling WRPG we have data for.

GO GT5!!!!!!!!! sorry godofwar_3ever I just wanted to post this chart straight away, but just so everyone knows godofwar_3ever made this chart, I just added in this weeks GT5 numbers! |
so it is not really about GT or PS3 in NA
but about racing game in general
how much is FM3 week 1 in NA ?

Fine that's my bad on my part as I did not know VGC didn't have the pre order data for much older games.
But it still isn't a reasonable comparison to make. Why compare an established RPG Series that is well known and has sold well, to a brand new IP which didn't have much marketing nor create big buzz? If it was the other way around where DAO had amazing pre orders and Fable III right now wasn't matching it, then it would be reasonable because it's a New IP that did well when compared to an existing series of the same genre. And of course I wouldn't complain either if he was comparing two established series. Nothing wrong with that ie COD BO vs Reach vs MW2. But comparing to a New IP is not fair.

Am I detecting a slight slow down in Black Ops pre-orders? PS3 slightly down on last week, 360 significantly down on last week. Only one week's fluctuation but this could be a sign that CoD's pre-orders are going to trend towards MW2's and potentially even fall behind MW2's track. |
yep, meaning that Reach may even outcompete it ?

Zelda: skyward Sword must be 31st then since it almost had 40,000 pre-orders lats weeks since they had the top 50, For all we know donkey kong Country returns could be in the top 50.
Buying in 2015: Captain toad: treasure tracker,
mario maker
new 3ds
yoshi woolly world
zelda U
majora's mask 3d
so FM3 did 225k week 1 with 190k preorder
so 300k preorder for GT5 and 500k week1 is safe ...
will still be hard for GT5 to hit the 10M LTD
the 15 M are impossible BTW
Time to Work !

How high do you think Kinect Adventures will get?

I expect at least 500k week one worldwide. Thats almost $100m in revenue - week one (when exchange rates are taken into account).

I can't pin a number on it, I'm going to wait for advertising to start, but as we know the target audience for Kinect doesn't usually pre order, so yeah 500k week one sounds pretty good! Think MS will achieve 3 million sold?
