Mario kart will reclaim the throne today.

Sorry, I don't see how it's going to get 4 points more today than YW2, completely bucking the recent trend. 

 

YW2 will remain on top for a long time; perhaps MK can get it back in the last week but that will be it.

Yes; Mario Kart is #8 and Yokai Watch is #12; but since when has Amazon been used as a reliable barometer of success anyway? We've long since moved on from Amazon rankings here as they're simply too unreliable.

I stand by the fact that YW2 will stay on top; or at least ahead of Mario Kart; until launch.

the main point is that yesterday, YW2 was at 5th/6th spot while MK8 was around 14th. starting today, not only YW2 finally slowed down a lot on amazon, MK8 also started to go up considerably. So, I think we will start seeing more mk8 pre orders from now ans yw2 will cool off untill it's launch is somewaht closer.

A game can sit on top of amazon.jp and not get any pre-orders on COMG; while games below it on amazon get many pre-orders.

It's really not indicative of much.

However, what happens on Amazon =/= what happens on COMG. So...it still doesn't tell us anything.

YW2 was getting tons of points while on top of the amazon, so I would at least give the benefit of doubt.

Both 2 different places and besides YW2 sold out 3 times there, the third time being 2 days ago, thats the only reason its down. Once they can pre order the games again it'll shoot up to #1+#2 spots

Yup and now YW is 1st again so according to this it'll do way more points than MK(8th)... 

 

amazon updates hourly and can fluctuate which makes it unreliable for predictions (unless you take a timespann which gives you more datapoints but still...).

Not a chance. It well never hit the top spot again. 



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!
