Forums - Sales - Pachter June NPD Predictions

Could it be that one of the weekly WiiU columns in his spreadsheet got accidentally added to the PS4 total.
The numbers then would make much more sense (PS -20, WiiU +20K)

bad news for PS fans, his prediction means Xbox One will sell best!

haha I know right?

Anyways, i think his predictions for the PS4 isn't way off. I would expect the PS4 to do around 240k in June. I think a lot forget that june is a 5 week month. I think his numbers for the XB1 are too low though. I would expect at least 180k and as high as 200k.

After the previous month, when the PS4 sold sub 200k, why has he predicted a 55k increase in sales? Was there a shortage he's aware of?


We don´t know if it sold more or less than 200k and we won´t probably know this month either. 


Wait I thought NPD last month showed that is old less than 200k so why don't we know? O ram I mistaken? I could swear it showed that though.

I think his PS4 numbers are a tad high, XB1 number are too low and Wii U numbers need to be raised 10 or 20k to account for the MK8 bundle.



The absence of evidence is NOT the evidence of absence...

PSN: StlUzumaki23

I love Patcher <3 XD

My prediction is:

PS4: 175K

XOne: 150K

WiiU: 125K

The only numbers we have are from Neogaf insiders.

They use a lot of strapolation and unofficial sources to get those numbers... unless a companie disclaim their results.

Last months May NPD for Wii U was approximately 60k -- so to say it only reaches 67k in a 5 week week month in which MK8 was a bundled, top selling game throughout the month along with the healthy weekly 3x-4x boost in hardware sales Nintendo reported for the week(s) following the launch probably means Pachter hasn't done his homework on the Wii U this month. That or he sincerely thinks the Wii U is selling just as bad or probably worse than prior to the MK8 launch.


He doesn't like to be wrong about the Wii U.


God forbid anyone thinks he has a favorable view of Nintendo! Then nobody takes him seriously ;)

It's really a mystery to me me why anyone would care what this idiot has to say about anything. He has managed to make some people believe that what he says has some kind of weight or relevance.



Try to do at least ONE good deed everyday....

In my opinion:
PS4 - Too high
Xbox One - Too high
Wii U - Too low



pachter predictions

PS4: 255K
XB1: 150K
WIU: 67.5K
360: 65K
PS3: 42K

There is nothing wrong with the neogaf numbers. Unless you just want to be stubborn, the NeoGaf numbers are theoretically accurate. Its not like they just pull the numbers outta their collective asses. They always base them off at least one confirmed number and some other confirmed metric to get their approximations. Classic mathmatical substitution.
