Ah I see what people mean when they say that bundle copies aren't included in the Japan Preview. But still, there's a 10% margin of error that you have to take into consideration so it's still not off :P

OT: I think Trinity is low :( It looks like a good game. But Black Ops is doing great!

A 10% margin of error on the 10% margin of error? The low end and high end figures are the margins of error on the central figure of 466,000 units sold.

Don't worry, as long as you play nice with the cat dude (fwap), and spank Darth for leading you astray!

PS: 10% on 10% doesn't work well! :P

PSS: Preview is just a preview of a possible week....it is basis of what should be the week not 100% accurate.

Oh, f'crying out loud. EVERY. FUCKING. WEEK. Can't we have a single Japan sales thread without people bitching about the Japan preview being off? It's just a preview, a guestimate. We don't guarantee that it's accurate; rather, it's what our analyst (TheSource) predicts based on trends and historical data. And frankly, he's still more accurate than some of the other analysts that some members here orgasm over at the mention of their name.

If this keeps up, there WILL be bans. It's getting to the point where I don't like coming into the Japanese sales threads because it's always the same thing. Unless you want to start making weekly predictions every week before any numbers are released, I don't want to see it anymore. Hell, if someone really wants to take me up on that, I'll be willing to crunch the numbers and give accuracy rates on everyone participating. It won't be prediction league quality, but it may be interesting...

Just ban them. If they're so arrogant and stupid as to not understand what a preview means then they deserved to be insta-banned.



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.

I think personal insults should constitue a ban far faster.

I agree, personal insults should be banned.

People who complain about the previews being inaccurate are either arrogant or stupid.
