Congrats on winning that bet, Clyde. And congrats to Smash. And either Japan needs to learn what good games look like or Nintendo needs to seriously start advertising things that aren't Mario Kart and Smash Bros.

It isn't over yet.

I was just verifying it with you. Anything you wouldn't normally see. 20-10K is normal. 30K is stretching. 40K is when you know something is there. If you want to rename the terms, that'll be fine. 

40-50k is quite common on big games. When you're talking 800k+ FWs, a 5-6% difference is expected and well within a margin of error.


Alright, I guess we'll know a difference tomorrow. The main thing we can use is the hardware difference.

3 more days of pre-orders for Bayo 2, at the current speed, 25pts... similar to DKC:TF, so around 38k first week?

I think we already have a winner for the Super Smash Bros bet:

http://www.nintendo.co.jp/corporate/release/2014/140916.html

Over 1 million sold (including eShop) in the first 2 days, as well as over 1 million retail shipments during the weekend.

Hiska, Nintendo announcing their shipped + digital has very little bearing on the bet I made with Clyde.

No. Nintendo is announcing sold (in Japanese 販売 = sold). It says sold more than a million (including digital).

Then, in the last part Nintendo says they shipped (in japanese shipped is 出荷) one million at retail.

so the meaning is Sold retail + digital = over 1 million 

shipment alone over 1 million.

ther're two different sentences.

I'm just in the crowd that if a publisher announces sales figures and they're not citing a source, it's shipped.

Nintendo is a Media Create's subscriber, and numbers for subscribers are already available.

Nintendo have MC sales and they said retail + digital SALES(販売) are over a million. Then they added that the shipment at retail (出荷) is ALSO over a million. Two different sentences. If it was shipped they shouldn't have bothered pointing that.

Then, if your bet was just using MC and Famitsu average, it's fine. But the game sold one million in its first weekend, as the source says.

This is getting intense.

I told you. Nintendo always uses MC's numbers.
