Aaron Greenberg
Cannot wait for November NPD data...it is like sweeps week!



Around the Network

Lemme guess. 360 1 million and > Wii, Kinect 1.5 million? Can't be though, Greenberg scoffs VGC data, so surely it can't be a 1 million / 1.5 million month.

VgC has Black Ops on 360 undertracked by ALOT! 4.2M ... Mw2 did that last year with bundles not being counted , makes no sense this this game sold much more.



What heck is sweeps week? Anyway, he seems excited! Must be over 1 mill surely?



 

It's going to be a big month for 360, but just you wait until December NPD. It's gonna be crazy.

I just don't like this guy...isn't he the VGChartz enemy?



Above: still the best game of the year.

Sweeps week is the week in which Nielson does it's biggest "ratings" checks.  This is when every TV show pulls out as much shocking things as they can to try and attract eyes... because these ratings are ultimatly used to set advertising prices for time slots.

Also is uesd for the moving of timeslots... etc.



I expect 360 and Wii to be at least 1M.  DS to be over 1M 99% sure.

More my guess is that he just means that every system has "pulled out it's best" and he can't wait to see who was the highest.  With a suspison that it's him.
