Am in the UK Vinnie, how many hours time is that for the sake of those of us living in other time zones..?

11:00pm. However, results will not be published until 2 days later. Bloomberg and other financial multinationals should provide us with a summary nonetheless soon after.

Okay, cool. Thanks for that mate!



I've been saying all year so far that WiiU will rebound and hit about 10m by the end of 2013. Given Nintendo's forecast to be at ~12m by April 1, 2014, I think I'm right in-line with their predictions.

With the rumored line-up coming for the 2nd half of the year, it'll be close.

I think Nintendo will miss their target again with Wii U.

PS4/Nextbox and low priced PS360 will steal Wii U sales at holidays period.

Yup, I've been saying the exact same thing for a while. I'm convinced we'll see a $50 price cut to coincide with the launches of 3D Mario and Mario Kart 8 in an attempt to scupper the launches of the PS4 and 720.

I also think both the PS4 and 720 will retail for $500, leaving the Basic SKU being half the price with that price cut.

Considering what's in the box for the PS4 and 720 along with the manufacturing costs associated with having 16 RAM chips on the motherboard I think neither one of them will be able to have it available for less than $450 bare minimum.

Mario Tennis Open and Paper Mario Sticker Star each undertracked by about 500k? Surely those can't all be digital sales and/or sitting on store shelves.

Let's see... Diamond & Pearl overtracked.



They are too optimistic.... What about a nice price cut for wii U...

Now that I'm here:

3DS lower than I expected, and probably lower than most expected. It also looks like I will be winning my < 20m 3DS sales bet this year quite easily.

WiiU didn't meet expectations as expected, however ironic that is

Wii still shipping a decent amount. I'm almost surprised. I do expect shipments in the next two quarters to be lower though. Could top 100m next Q (Q1)

Edit: Can someone tell me wtf VGChartz' problem is with the 'less than' symbol?

a problem as old as the current version of this site.
Somehow it needs to separated with spaces to not break the post.

I believe the problem is that posts allow html coding, without making an exception to use the symbol within a text box.



yeah pezus, stop being a trawl
