I'm actually amazed at how accurate it's been. All that needs to be done is a tweak for the holidays that is only used during the holidays and it will be fine.

So, I feel like I got to ask... did something happen between this time last year to now for Benji? Like does he have better data or sources now or something?

He's the guy that ended up being wrong last year and became conservative with what he shares right? Why is he making definitive claims now?

Yea I don't get it, last year ps4 beat switch by 900k and he wasn't sure ps4 would so clearly his data is missing huge chunk of valuable info.

I'm not what the obsession with making a prediction tool just wait for npd and save your time because there will never be a reliable tool imho.

If you arent interested, then just stay away from the discussion. It's not hard, and that would most certainly save us all time.

Well I've been saying this for months the large group of people who don't like quickrick should just not quote him but they can never resist.

But of course, you can advise the "mob" while you have no advice for Quickrick himself right ?

This topic and the amazon one is all about prediction, its pretty silly to be saying why we care about the tool. Its' fun and it's interesting, its a discussion point about how things are going....

The tool is great and the work that is done on it is superb.

I agree, some people just take the console allegiance thing way too seriously.

Yea, ultimately, it’s great if all three console makers and third party developers are doing well. Predictions add to discussions on where sales could go and what could potentially transpire due to these sales. So what if one month is wrong? There’s always room for improvement, especially during time of the holidays. Nothing’s perfect, especially predictions.

If the tool were to get November right calling it correctly for the Switch, then it would mean basically that some of the bundles accounted for by the tool for last month were accounted for in a different month by NPD since both the Switch and the PS4 are widely reported to have done well during BF with a seeming slight edge for the PS4.
I retain a slight hope that the Switch might get a surprise victory this month.
