Okay, sure. I bet that the Wii will not overshoot my prediction by a minimum of 1 million versus your prediction that it will outperform last years numbers.

I've had crow before, the trick is to use lots and lots of condiments!


:O. That's not what I was betting, :P. I might as well eat crow now if I'm gonna make that bet. Even I heavily doubt it'll get close to last year's numbers, just saying that it'll outdo your prediction hugely. No fun making a bet when both of us will more likely than not eat crow.

Just remember to upload pictures!

 

Mmm...

Yummy, that sure looks tasty.

Thank goodness I'm not the only one who thinks he's found a Christmas goose replacement!

*eats crow*

I just realised that the PSP has sold ony 4 million less than the Wii in the EMEAA territories. Why is it widely regarded as a failure again?

It's not regarded as a failure -- it's regarded as domed.

It means that it was successful at some point far back in the past, but sells like crap now, :P. Besides,with 2 extra years and like a dozen more markets to sell to, you'd think it would be ahead.

Is there currently a console on the market that isn't d0med?

Always makes me laugh.

They can all be domed in their own unique and special ways, :D!

Up YOY? But last weeks sales last year was well over 1.5 million, and this year its set to be down 20-25% with Japan added in worldwide. I'm sorry, but its quite heavily down YOY as it has been for the last months.

Ugh, yeah! Americas let me down.

Well, I hate to be one of those "UNDETRAKEDZ!!" losers, but after last month, there's always NPD, :P. And Nintendo shipments. So there's still hope...

For now, though, looks like I messed up big time.
