Last year I did a table listing the numbers people think DKCR will make. Now fast forward 4 months and here we are.

What has the game done for the first week and the first 15 weeks?

Edit: And can you link us to the original thread?

seems my 4.2m for 15 weeks wasn't too far off.  Good to see DKCR surpass even my expectations.




First week, WW launch aligned, according to vgchartz was 899K. Week 15 is this week, and it should be at 4.43.



At 14 weeks its at 4.38m by the way




So I was 100k under on Week 1

And about 300k over on 15 Weeks...

Probably gonna be a couple of million higher on my lifetime prediction too.



                            

where the hell is my prediction in your tally?



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
