It's certain that they will surprise. But who?

Gaf down.

"Hardware design isn’t about making the most powerful thing you can.
Today most hardware design is left to other companies, but when you make hardware without taking into account the needs of the eventual software developers, you end up with bloated hardware full of pointless excess. From the outset one must consider design from both a hardware and software perspective."

Is it just a gag now when ever GAF cant load? Why all the traffic now?

Won bet with t3mporary_126 - I correctly predicted that the Wii U's LTD at the end of 2014 would be closer to 9 million than 10 million. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=6673287

I'm going to stay away from gaf with this but I think it's safe to say the rumor we all believed about xb1 yield issues wasn't true.

Ps4 won this month but it's closer than I expected. Microsoft has stuffed retail. Yield definitely not an issue.

@primeau31 They are making as many units as Sony. They are just doing it in less territories. They are absolutely focused on the US supply

Official numbers. GAF only cares about those and considering this is the first NPD for PS4 and XBone the level of interest is high.

GAF going down is never surprising. It dwarfs us in terms of userbase.

iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Wouldn't 13 territories down from their previous plans kind of confirm that they did have yeild issues and decided to nix a few territories rather than sacrifice US sales?

RIP Dad 25/11/51 - 13/12/13. You will be missed but never forgotten.
