But it looks like VGC was spot on, a difference of 1k! (Xbox 360 undertracked, of course!)



Tease.

Halo Reach 3.3 million.

Anyone can guess. It takes no effort to throw out lots of predictions and have some of them be correct. You are not and wiser or better for having your guesses be right. Even a blind man can hit the bullseye.

Metroid Other M, possibly


Ok, so we have Metroid, Halo, Kingdom Hearts...

 

We need 2 more to knock off the bundled title.


The two SKU's of Madden beat it by alot, by vgchartz numbers at least.

NPD counts them seperate? Also didn't Madden launch in August?



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Yeah, but they still sold this month, far more than Sports Champions according to vgchartz. Just look at TheSource's NPD preview.



A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.

You're really trying to spoil my excitement here aren't you?
