Definitely. We will get a full reveal there too. I think this year’s event might be longer.

Nintendos E3 this year has massive potential...

Smash is 100% there, Prime 4 should be there, Retro Studios SHOULD (Yeha I've said that for a long time now, but really. It's time) Bayo 3 could be there, and whatever Nintendo has up in their sleeves outside of this. Yoshi and Fire Emblem should get some more love soon enough and I dont think we're getting another direct ahead of E3.

I think we're going to see more than 25 minutes this time around

Yeah, not to mention Animal Crossing and Pokémon are possible (likely) too. I wouldn’t put my money on Retro’s game, but Pikmin 4 is very likely (I’d love that with all my heart honestly). Due to how many big games might be there, I think this year’s event might last around 50 minutes.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

You missing point, you are negative only about Nintendo, and you constantly downplaying Switch succes and you constantly have low or negative expectations for, but Switch constantly proving that you are wrong.

there is nothing to really talk about in terms of playstation and xbox, we already know the out come of those consoles. after 2018, i will most likely stop posting about switch sales, as the out come will be pretty clear. 

Of course there is, but you have constantly negative wishful thinking only about Nintendo, and thats reason why you have constant arguing with people, and you fail to see that.

Yeah Animal Crossing was my safe bet for 2018.. and I can see 2 big hitters for the second half of the year.. but 3? ;p

Smash + Pokemon/Animal Crossing would make that 20M sales a very very legit target.

Well, THAT didn't take long. XD

My goodness, all quickrick did was post factual NPD information regarding Switch sales compared to Xbox in Dec and PS4 in Nov. The original claim that the Switch "dominated" December was incorrect. This entire recent back-and-forth could have been completely avoided if one person simply said, "Oh, I meant be on top yet again in December" or "Smash will push sales even further in Dec." A mere acceptance of factual information instead of an obstinate attitude that quickly turned to attacking the user and this thread would look so much better. I see so many times people saying that changing your original prediction is "backpedaling" or "moving the goalposts" but those are wrong uses for those phrases. Changing your prediction means accepting that you were wrong originally and take facts into account to try and make a better prediction. That's not a bad thing. It's people who refuse to accept factual information and continue to use ad hominem attacks that turn discussions into mudslinging and name calling tantrums.

I don't agree much with quickrick's predictions and it's obvious that he has his biases, but I'll say one thing, the guy doesn't resort to ad hominem attacks even when he's being ganged up on by people continuing to attack him instead of his arguments. I doubt I'd be able to do the same.

Can we please focus on the thread topic and amazon. I do not want Symbios63 to be scared off like Pibble and Poison based on the same few people. .
