These attacks to Vic Viper should stop. He said several times he was wrong and he apologized for that. I think it's enough.


That's why I ignored basil.

Because that was not what I meant. I am just quoting the guy who butt in and somewhat insulting my reading comprehension.

I really agree there.

I am pretty sure VIc really knows what I am talking about.

I never meant to say the game sold bad, because let's face it, it sold wonderfully. i just made a mistake to believe that mine and the average prediction on COMG thread was higher than that. I don't know what I was thinking (those extremely high number on the chart probably led me to another number), but after checking the thread for clarification, I was wrong on both accounts (both my prediction and the average were 600-650k). That's what happened. Then, I retracted myself in the thread.

So 2 things:

It didn't underperformed - It never was said it did.

It didn't "underperformed according to my and COMG predictions" - that's the part that needed correction. In fact it did exactly like most posters there said it would.

Ok you misread what I wrote.

There's no agenda on what I wrote. I just had problem on how you wrote it. Your tone. You didn't even acknowledge it until I posted a lot facts that it did great.

Anyway, let's drop it. I am becoming the villain here when I just disagreed with you.

Huh. I didn't think Toki to Towa would do too well. Unless the shipment was tiny, it may not flop.

It seems Sony has a pattern for Vita now.

Western (launch), Japanese (mid), Western (end of the year), Japanese (early 2013). How is this gonna to help sales?

@ VicViper

 

Is that you! You flew to Japan just to get Bravely Default didn't you? :P


If only... but I'll fly to japan to kick square in the butt if the game isn't localized

I think you might want to let the person know you are hot link the images to his site or just direct people to go to his page. It's probably not intentional but that's not a good practice.



MikeB predicts that the PS3 will sell about 140 million units by the end of 2016 and triple the amount of 360s in the long run.

You're right. I'll fix it soon.



smbu2000 on 13 October 2012

Ah, well the game looked really good, so I caved and picked up Bravely Default. The box is kind of "holographic". I also picked up 2 copies of Art Academy 2 (one for me and one for my gf, not shown). I'm glad it has a pretty low price.

I like how it uses AR. I took that during the "intro".
