ethomaz hire a defense attorney? He can speak for himself, LOL.

The idea that they could produce 5 million units in 6 weeks was always crazy. Even the 4.2 million they did sell was much higher than I expected. They may well have sold that many if they could produce them, but it simply wasn't possible.

Obviously lol.

for the people saying 800k is a lot to be off by. its 19%. VGC was 14% off with internal information from their data after the system launched and had official figures to work with. Ethomaz predicted it months in advance.

If he was right I could see people owing him an apology but since he was wrong I don't think so.

Oh, I thought you were talking about the PS3 one, when he stated that in 2013 they were going to ship 12m, and that in Japan it was going to be flat YoY.
