Now they have to show something really amazing at e3 or I see this going to fall behind the Gamecube.

The funny thing about that chalkboard is that , as trolls never seemed able to understand, all those games in totality DID in fact save the ps3.

Yeah I'm seeing the WiiU at around 5mil or so come March (shipped), around 4.4mil sold. Anything lower than what you said would be pretty dire. But there's a long, long way to go. Sales could pick up, it could be undertracked in Europe, there could be a pricecut or some huge games come the end of the year, who knows. There's no need for concern now, unlike the Vita, of course.
I think 115k on average from now to E3 seems plausible. Some weeks around the 150k mark, some closer to 100k.
I am wondering if VGCHARTZ will redesign their extrapolation formula or expand their retailer information channel.
We understand that VGC is a free and non-pro tracking site, so we don't expect the data is going to be 100% accurate. But this kind of huge over-track or undertrack issue will destroy the credibility of this site step by step and will make gamers stay away or leave this site. If this continues, the weekly chart discussion will become more and more pointless.
I really wish VGC improve it because I really love this site.

So you think it's too high? It was 430k for the same week last year...130k drop, 70k+ of that being in Europe (it did 200k+ there last year). If anything, it might be undertracked. |
I am just sceptical after recent adjustments...

0% chance that will happen.

Makes sense, everything about the PS3 and Vita in Europe seems wrong.
Nintendo will release numbers very shortly, however, so we'll know for ecertain then.

ioi said the reason the site is alive is because of ~20 Pro customers who I'm sure ARE expecting good tracking for their money. He will be more likely to change it for them.
Chandler said: Everytime vita crosses 13% marketshare, it gets adjusted down. Sooooo funny. Wii U sales are bad. Like, really bad. Especially NoE needs a major kick to the crotch, they failed on every scale. |
bad is relative. if by bad you mean wiiU seems to be following a ps360 sales path then yeah.
...AAANnd, who was it yesterday that was quite adamant that wiiU could maintain a weekly sales average above 178k? please identify yourself as i would like to poke fun at you now. :P
