Mrs. Average has a much higher correlation with Mr. Average when Mr. Average has a high score. Which actually makes sense, since in those cases we're either almost all underpredicting or overpredicting so the scores don't cancel each other out for Mr. Average.

Thanks... was just about to do it myself.

Looks like some adjustments have been made.

For being second for the week again?

Well, I guess I don't have too much to complain when taking overall first place (as well as first place for all home consoles combined)

Congratulations to BHR for his victory this week.



Yep^ those results looks the same as mine (only checked the totals but if they don't have mistakes twould be unusual to have two cancelling mistakes in the same persons data)

I will update them later.

I am really struggling to tell what's going to happen next week, particularly as the adjustments now have the Wii increasing 200-300k from Black Friday week to week 6. As far as I can tell everything should be down next week (PS3 certainly given it should fall in Japan... actually I haven't looked into past FF launches, maybe the software spike causes a more rounded bump in hardware sales, but I am doubtful)



@koffieboon
The overall first place seems to me to be the best thing to win here (of all the 18 or even 28 things [counting highest week and total sales] you could win).

Looking forward 09tarheel has all consoles going up next week as one of the few, but week 10 could make a whole lot of difference with drop offs in the range of 40-60%.

well it looks like there locked now right? going by the above posts

so here are the errors

1 MW2 comes out on the 3rd week not 2nd to bad carl, darkjonnyx, Noobie and dmj who have there 3rd weeks lower for the HDs

2 @ twroo why did u fail to tell us about the DSI LL launch in japan? that should cause a boost in HW sales look at last year wen the dsi came out in japan only ww went from like 360kish to 580kish

i know u got alot to do twroo but you should put more effort in ur tips section like i do in my threads

regardless i think handhelds should not of been included or have them separate so theres 2 winners

oh by the way twroo good luck with the thread like the proof said ur gonna need it thats a hell of alot of work u got to do if ur going to update it every week

PS3 will hit at least 1 mill WW i guarantee it
remember the last time a guaranteed something I'm sure Seece and BengaBenga do... now maybe thats why they havent logged in VGC again

Don't count on that mil christmas week bhr. Remember that the slim is fairly new and tretton said that they might see shortages. After a huge black friday (which I expect), it's going to be low the enxt week, then really high, then only slightly higher xmas week

yeah finally on top where i belong i was the one to dethroned tarheel09

That is true, if I can pick one to win I would obviously go for the overall win.

@BHR: Second time you beat me by 2 points to take the week btw. Well, I have 4 second places already (one joined), I don't think anyone will beat that!
