Forums - Sales Discussion - The OFFICIAL Jan 2007 NPD Thread

If the numbers a) are Legit and b) were just released... Wouldn't every major industry trade site have the numbers? Websites like...www.gamasutra.com, www.gamesindustry.biz, www.gamedaily.biz, nextgeneration...not to mention Gamespot...Kotaku and the rest... So far, the data is not on anything other than where bunkum(s) is/are mentioned in forums

the numbers are legit and that fuckin mods being a dumbass. Why the fuck would you ban bunkum? The numbers are legit, you stupid ass. They're just leaked, which we should be happy about, not ban him. Somebody needs to punch that mod,. I will do it if I can. ioi, ban that mod. Your forum finally gets some publicity and the mod bans him.



If it's the real bunkum, and every indication is it is, then those numbers are probably true. Now you've banned him and he wont come back to your forum. He was just trying to get back at GAF by helping you. So you go and ban him. You verify the figures yourself by calling them "non-finalized" and "unnoficial". That is basically just comfirmation they are true, just the finals may be different by a small amount. We know you probably have inside contacts with NPD, so you know the numbers are true.



Wow, only fanboys could be so worked up over a bunch of numbers! Chill out everyone - its not like the numbers change the world or anything (they just add fuel to flamewars :>).

Well ,after the format and the fact that it was bunkum those were probably near-final and leaked data .We have been fortunate to hear of those here .Bunkum didnt say anytime those were the final NPD numbers ,not even that those were NPD numbers .I think mod overreacted but well it is of wise people to rectify and they did it very quickly so we shouldnt jump to their neck .

Thought Bunkum said those were NPD numbers. By the way, you´ve said at Meri that Bunkum was readmited after been benned, What´s the matter of his expulsion?. Out of this What do we know about the veracity of this numbers?. Anyway, on Tuesday we´ll know more. Un saludo Diomedes.



Ack-hem... well, since no other member has done it yet... Sony will reign supreme (I dare you to challenge me. I've got Gwaad on my side!) Microsoft will come at a close second (Gears and LP help here) Nintendo will have sold no Wii units, in spite of reports of them 'flying off shelves.' I see a 66% increase in Nintendo sales loss, causing a recall in all markets, including the foreign child-labor industry. Black market organs will take a hit, followed my the inevitible decline of MAC computer usage due to liver cancer. The online porn industry will continue to flourish, though third party fishermen will have to work twice as hard to meet their quota. Nyko will sell no wireless Wii sensor bars, and Xbox Live will continue to lose to Sony's superior online service.

Kwaad said: We will see if Nintendo can raise the sales for febuary. If the sales for March remain that high. I'll give 2007 to nintendo. But as it stands... the PS3 is higher than expected. and the Wii... is lower than I expected... and the 360 is lower than expected.
I'm surprised you felt this way being that according to your walmart ps3 should have outsold all else 4 to 1.

Well as you can see from two or three posts above yours bunkum was unbanned short after the banning .He didnt say explicitlly that those were NPD numbers .But ,as other posters here can confirm you ,each time he has been asked for data he has provided nigh-on-perfect numbers coming from NPD so everybody naturally assumed those were legit numbers .Other than his previous record we cant know for sure if those are legit numbers or not .The reason for his short banning was probably the data was leaked and that could cause problems with NPD ,although the reason used was that the data wasnt definitive .Not definitive ,but not fake either .Tomorrow we will see more in any case . Un saludo. PS;que no te has resistido a seguirme hasta aqui eh ? Je je en fin me parece que si investigas bien esta pagina veras la de datos que tiene y lo interesante que es .



Tommorow, we will see where bunkum's allegiance lies. Either he was yanking VGchart's or Neogaf's chain, or, most likely, both. I think bunkum can now be safely relegated to superlegend status.
