Your weekly sales are pretty close. I will tag. Need to make up some ground but who knows, You could have a nice week and get to the magic number.


There's no way it'll sell what I originally predicted. I was 600k off in the 1st week, which fucked it up for me. It's outsold all of predictions in the 3 proceeding weeks though, so it should sell 7.2m+ in 2012

No, like I said earlier, some of your last few weeks are bound to be hugely off. Especially the last two.


Lol, no. You've got nothing to quantify that statement.

show us what you, oh mighty one, have to quantify your predition? making it more meaningful than what pezus said.


I looked at the percentage changes of similar titles released at similar times of the year, pezus didn't. :)



My prediction threads:

Wii U will sell under 40m units (made on 14th September 2012)

PS Vita will sell under 20m units (made on 30th September 2012)

Wii U will sell under 7m in 2013 - I was right

Halo 4 first 9 weeks sales prediction

PS4 to be down YOY in 2015

Problem is that even just a few days will be a huge difference


I've got a buffer of 100k anyway. 500k difference...so 7.3m.

we could argue that you don't have proof pezus didn't do that too... but its childish.
we can agree that the value of your prediction (as much research that you have done) is the same as the statement pezus did (even if his is wildly improvable) . neither have solid arguments (facts) to back it up... so you shouldn't say he has nothing because you do too... you are allowed, of course, to have your research and perditions but don't dismiss others just because their research found different results.

respect it... when he is proven wrong, you can make him eat crow...

Ooh, sales could be quite a bit higher this week then.

I saw it for £30 in the UK today in TESCO (the UK's largest retailer)

I'm guessing around 7 by Jan 5th.



All of this, of course, is just my opinion.

Good I hope it sells great and this prediction gets back on track. That would be nice. Some would eat crow. LOL
