Why is the last week of January still missing? Shouldn't it have happened by now?


I think the data that ioi receives is super delayed... like 3 weeks delayed.  Anyway, he isn't able to keep up with NPD (llast month he got it that day.)  Another hint that his info is delayed are the super delayed retroactive adjustments.

Bets:

(Won)Bet with TechoHobbit: He(Techno) says 10 million by January 1,2014 I say 9 million by then. Winner gets 2 weeks of sig control.

(Lost)Bet with kinisking: I say Ps4 will win April NPD while he says Xbox One will win it; winner gets 1 week of avatar control.

Wasn't the last EA game on Wii U Need for Speed which released nearly 2 years ago?
