NPD Preview is here...June NPD = May 31 to July 4 - five weeks. May NPD was May 3 to May 30 - four weeks.

http://news.vgchartz.com/news.php?id=4209

We're expecting 20+ games to sell over 100,000 this month so don't be surprised/shocked if your favorite doesn't make it. Alot of titles will be bunched together. Software should be down over June 2008, and hardware definitely will be overall. I do have a hunch it won't be down 20% as Pachter and Divinch expect though.

At what hour is NPD?

6:30 PM EST...i guess around 11:30 PM for London and 3:30 PM for Los Angeles.

If you're estimates are about right you would have to hold your hat to ps2 sales.
If I was Sony I would not be dumping this for a long long time.

Wedbush Morgan and EEDAR hardware sales predictions:



DS - 700,000 (Webush) 725,000 (EEDAR)

Wii - 350,000 (Webush) 355,000 (EEDAR)

Xbox 360 - 225,000 (Webush) 230,000 (EEDAR)

PS3 - 165,000 (Webush) 170,000 (EEDAR)

PSP - 130,000 (Webush) 125,000 (EEDAR

PS2 - 100,000 (Webush) N/A (EEDAR)

I expect Prototype to do much better than expected on VGC, but that's just me I guess.

Can't wait.

This is a 5 week month no?

If so, I say the Wii broke 400k, 360 will be at 215k and PS3 at 135k. These are pure guesses of course as I have no idea what I am talking about.

Conduit in the top 10 would be a nice suprise but very unlikely.

HUGE drop from last year.

when can we expect the data to come in? I still got timezone problems, so just say how many hours from now on :D :D

@The source

Those are vgchartz numbers correct?
