I guessed 295k specifically with a range of 270k-320k. In retrospect I think my COMG! prediction / sub 300k prediction was completely fine since it was 325k.

I don't care for what people on NeoGaf took for granted, my point is about what happened in this thread. My japanese is not very good (must rely on dictionaries) I think it says "GameShop: MarioKart 8 is a RocketStart. First week may be aprox. 400k"

Probably first day sales were really good, and this is worrying as a front loaded MK is probably the least thing Nintendo wants.

Now, the whole thing started because Hiska couldn't understand why people were predicting less than 300k, when there were information (the blog entry), that suggested that it could go up to 400k. And then baldr downplaying the blog.

Yes, 400k is as close to 325k as 250k. And assuming it was going to be 400k by that blog entry is not sensible. But, was a useful piece of information that some people choose to ignore.

Put it this way. The blog suggested 400k. I suggested 295k.

Who was closer? Me

Who should be closer if we were to trust them as a source? The blog.

Honestly the point of the post was not to pat myself on the back. But to downplay the importance of that blog. I trust Hiska more then the blog personally. When he cites the blog, I get confused :(.
