Bah, you broke the quote pyramid!

Oh well. I suddenly realized how much I love this thread.

1) Someone announces NPD stats will be released

2) A lot of people wait

3) People get impatient when it's not on time

4) Numbers are out!

5) Horns are tooted, teeth are gnashed

6) OMG VGC is under/overtracking my favorite/worst console! BIASSS!!!!

7) PR Spin

8) Same old arguments emerge

9) ????

10) Profit!

There is no such thing as a console war. This is the first step to game design.

So Resident Evil : UC is around 520k between USA and Japan ( 270 + 250 ) until early January.
Does some of you remember Capcom prediction for this title ?

These expectations were through March of 2008. RE:UC stands at 520k. And thats

NOT including Europe at all

&

Not including the sales it will get in all three territories through the next two months before it hits their deadline. Game is going to destroy their expectations just like RE:4 did. Also grats to Wii getting 2 more million 3rd party sellers this month with Sonic & Mario and GH3.

Jeez. I expect a huge shift in Capcom's game development after this fiscal year.

There is no such thing as a console war. This is the first step to game design.

Yep, doesn't include Canada (I just did the math by looking at previous US NPDs and adding them).

So these are pretty much spot on. An extra 11-12 percent for Canada/Mexico/Tiny Countries, and you arrive very near what Ioi has.
