Take that TWRoO my endless 'advertising' on people's walls has net me one more participant than you ever had :p.


I just realized that when I wake up on the morrow and leave home there will still be 1 hour left for the deadline I've set. I hope you guys don't plan on some crazy stuff that last hour. 10 hours left at this time.

Psh, show-off

I think darth or dmj did some wall spamming for me last year, I blame him.

Oh I think I might have used this girl to wall 'advertise' last year http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/profile/50458/prediction-league/. Yes I've been conspiring against you :-p

Originally created to support the prediction league nordlead just so happened to chance upon her the second I created her. Noone ever tried to ban me for this alt account so don't start trying now ... Machina.

I even did an interview with zexen_lowe http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=82210&page=1

How long do we have left to predict? I did mediocre at this last year so I'll probably enter again.


You still have time to enter! 3 hours till deadline. [this is a post to bump the thread for last second entries!]

Alright an hour left. I don't think the Japan Preview contains any new info, so any latecomer (I'm guessing postofficebuddy may try and breach the deadline by an hour or 2.

You forgot to mention the white and silver PS3 models launching in Europe in Week 2 and the red and blue ones launching in Japan in week 4 along with the special edition Ninokuni bundle. Sorry for the last minute entry. Some stuff came up on short notice. I'm trying to anticipate any possible adjustments. I'm not in the mood to add everything up, I'll edit it later.

 



Proudest Platinums:
1. Gran Turismo 5

i guess i will sit this one out. probably to late anyway. im sure Sony will win this holiday though.

I've updated the prediction tables for the last time, if I screwed anything up be sure to tell me :). You've notified that I forgot Ninokuni PS3 and some PS3 hardware bundles, but I can't be arsed to add them now. I've cleaned the OP from all unnecessary text at this point.

If you want a copy of my Excel sheet you can send me a personal message with you email and I'll send it over once I've finished it before this week's up. This way you can easily enough fiddle around with the numbers as I do. I'll definately send it over to TWRoO so there's someone that could make sure I don't fiddle with the numbers in case you don't trust me.

Good luck

Ah cool, I was going to copy them all out anyway (gonna add my previous 2 prediction posts to it to see how good I was with my earlier numbers... somehow I envision my first set being bang on, just to throw dirt in my eyes after doing poorly with my current predictions.)

This is quite surprising. It looks like every single one of us underestimated the Ps3 for this week. The highest better for Ps3 Week 1 is at 300k, and it's at 281k without Japan so far. Last week, it sold 22k in Japan. Granted, "PostofficeBud" is going to be mighty close, but still, everyone bet lower than it seems to have actually done.

The same is nearly true for the X360. The highest bet was 285k, in front of 250k. It looks to be doing 270k, so only one single person bet more than it did, and everyone else less.

And with the Wii, the highest bet was 230k, in front of 210k. It's at 210k without Japan, so it looks to be selling 220-225k. Again, only one person bet higher than it actually did, and he was mighty close. Again, that was "PostofficeBud".

The same could be the case with the 3DS. It's at 187k without Japan. Last week, it did 74k there. If it does that again,  only 4 people will have bet higher than it did. If the 3DS does over 84k in Japan, only two people will have bet above what it did.

So that's quite funny really. We're already quite a bit off.

It's going to be very interesting to see how this develops.

Edit: Oh, and it's very fun to see how many there are of us now. We were just 8 in 2008, weren't we?

I predicted 280k for PS3 this week... so 20k off.
