Funny you mention that, as you were willing to go after a game on a system you don't favor because of some predictions you didn't see or don't care to accept. Check out Boutros's reply to you and understand why what you did was unnecassary.

Before you call people out for behavior, don't express the same behavior because you couldn't handle that a game DID have some huge expectations it didn't quite achieve. And really, in the EMEAA thread, nobody seems all that disappointed with GT5's sales, as it's performing above past iterations..

And you should check out my reply(/ies) to Boutros

One outrageous prediction doesn't constitute "some huge expectatons".  :)

Woohoo, some of the DKCR predictions were crazy!

Looking at the average I think it will fall short of 150k-200k or so, depending on what the Japanese first week will look like. NPD may ruin everything as well.



@CGI - No, there was only one, dude.  Only one that predicted NSMBWii-like numbers.  The other two were well below.

I find that prediction funny. He said he expected NSMBWii numbers yet his prediction was half a million  short of NSMBWii's over 2m FW. Predictions undertracked confirmed.

Gran Turismo (PSP)
Sony Computer Entertainment

892,851

I mean, that's all you need to see to understand how massive GT5 will be here.

Uhh, DKCR and Epic Mickey failed. Some people predicted NSMBW like sales for those games. Haha.

Did anyone really think it'd do NSMBW numbers or you just makin' that up?

Oh yes I've seen a lot of people thinking so.

Show me.  I don't believe that at all!

Are you guys are just projecting your disappointment with GT5 sales onto DKCR?  Cause I can't see anyone really, truly believing that DKCR = NSMBW in sales.

It was higly delusional to think it would do the same as NSMB Wii. We can arguable say it has half of the selling power of NSMB Wii, as it sold half of what the game did in Americas and EMEAA. I don't know about Japan, it'll problably do like 1/3 or 1/4 of what NSMB Wii did FW.But the game's sucess will depend a lot more on legs than FW.



Above: still the best game of the year.

Those DK, and Mario Collection numbers are very very very dissapointing, so are the Epic Micky ones

Was I the only who understood he was talking about LT numbers? (Although it still is delusional it will sell 20 million LT).
