I wonder why George Santayana's famous quote is playing over my head right now...


What is it?

Funnily enough we saw the opposite thing happen with the WiiU :p (at least here).

People almost universally disagreed with the guy that predicted the WiiU would sell less than 40m LT. Now we're sitting here celebrating it managing to scrape by a 60k/w baseline.

"the guy that predict 40m LT" is me? ._."

No not you :p A guy called man-bear-pig (this was back in 2012). He predicted the WiiU would sell less than 40m LT and almost everyone disagreed with him (i would have too, but wasn't posting at the time). Even those skeptical of the WiiU said 50 - 60m was more likely.

These days the majority don't think it will even hit 40m, let alone pass it.
