Smeags said: It would be one heck of a week to see 360 ahead of both the PS3 and Wii in Japan. I can't say I wouldn't have a good laugh if that was the case. Time will tell, but I doubt it. If It does happen, good for 360.

Well done 360, what a plesant surprise.

Keep up the bold (and well informed) predicitons Mr. Stickball

I'm glad I said it was indeed possible. Otherwise I'd be eating some serious crow right now.

We hould implement a top then chart on the frontpage with every week top ten croweaters. Well done and well deserved for Xbox.

I'm definitely saving a lot of post from the first page from Sony tools so next time to say something idiotic I can remind them why they are idiots :p

But his analysis wasn't correct. Among other things, the Wii rebounded from its supposed "massive year-over-year drop" to sell almost 28,000 units this week: about the same as it sold last year. Stick's prediction depended on this drop continuing, and it didn't. The 360 outsold the Wii anyway, but not the way he predicted that it would. Ergo, luck.

It's official... mrstickball is 'The People's Hero'

Luck would be saying that the 360 will outsell the Wii and not supply any analysis for why it would do so.  He predicted that the Wii would trend downward.  It didn't.  But, he also predicted that the 360 would have a higher sales for a number of reasons.  It did.  He wasn't spot on, but how many good predictions are?

Hmm, the 360 swept the table in Japan but wtf is with the weak Eu/Others numbers? The pricecut almost seemed to have a reverse effect?

Mrstickball is my hero!!!!

I believed in him the whole time!
