Forums - Sales Discussion - 10 Week Countdown 2011 - End Results

For those interested, I finally filled in the current adjusted numbers from last years countdown, so here are the results:

Here are the individual weeks: http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/8968/10wcweek.jpg

And the weekly results in a more compact form: http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/9480/10wcweeks.jpg

Console results: http://img810.imageshack.us/img810/764/10wcconsole.jpg

And overall results: http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/5862/10wctotals.jpg

The above results are not counting the additional points from the 10-week total predictions... you can see what you each got in the 'total' column of the consoles picture though... the numbers in those are multiplied by 3 to then get these final results:

isn't xmas week 10?

Christmas day yes, but personally I don't expect many people shopping for consoles on Christmas day

day after christmas is also known as the second black friday.

Add to that, that is when everyone returns unwanted gifts and gets the ones they really want and stores are trying to clear inventory.

I always thought it was 'Boxing Day'

Shows what I know.

 

Also, it was the same last year, and sales still dived, so...why not the same THIS year?



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Sorry it is called boxing day, but I think that's kind of a Euro term, innit?

And I dunno what I was thinking to be honest.



ok, final numbers saved...

Thanks for the results TWRoO I've added them to the fourth post of the OP, more people might see them there.

Seems Carl and his 'PSP price-cut that didn't happen' won. Funny to see Mr. Average 2nd at PS3, 3rd at Console and 6th overall.

I've re-kerjiggered my predictions for this year, just waiting for the Japanese hardware to come in to make sure I don't need to change them again (specifically what the misty pink 3DS will do)

My old predictions for total 10 weeks had 6.2m for Wii, 6.7m for PS3, 6.3m for X360 and 8.2m for 3DS.
My new prediction totals now add up to 5.9m for Wii, 6.45m for PS3, 6.3m for X360 and 7.5m for 3DS.

Ok, I think these are probably my final predictions (numbers in 1000s).... if I do edit them i'll do so within this post. ...see later post



Worldwide Hardware
PS3 245,400
3DS 230,033
X360 195,488
Wii 134,217

Last week is in. I'm expecting at least 7 more people with their numbers who've confirmed these last few days they'll be in. 2 days left.

I've had to do some serious 'advertising' on people's walls to get fresh new participants in here.



Last year I won in the PS3 predictions, the year before I came 2nd in 360 predictions and the year before that I won 360 predictions, in all 3 years my Wii predictions were horrible.

I hope I win it all this year!
