Wow, don't tell me you guys are saying you think I want FF XIII to sell badly.

I'm just reporting what's said on GAF, that's all. If it was in the opposite scenario in that FF XIII was selling one person per copy and NSMB selling multiple I'd report that too.

Oh but wait, it's what I obviously want. Can't believe even a mod is willing to stoop that low. Wow. Don't get so defensive.

1. "But I wonder if the game will have the same issue as MH3 and a bunch of otehr games - Many copies sold to retailers, still some copies on shelf and then retailers complain."

2. "I just hope overstuffing doesn't make retailers be really wary of games and games end up undershipped and then used copies flood stores in a week.

Though I wonder of sales might actually end up as we first predicted them to be before the 1.8 mil shipment announcement. Guess we'll see tomorrow from first day sales. "

 

your words says a lot.

You're forgetting another quote in which I said I hope that retailers don't end up losing faith or something in games if FF XIII really did get overshipped because that would mean other games being undershipped. So I hoped it would sell well so that doesn't happen.

Stop trying so hard.

you really are the only one who keeps using overshipped when none of no yet. I know you use your words carefully but it comes out bias nonetheless.

you are hoping they overshipped, accept it \.

lol, you think I'm the only one who said that? GAF was saying it too. I was saying that at FIRST (and not just me) but with these sell out things coming out rcently it looks like SE made a good decision.

Did you forget my prediction of 1.5 mil first week? Or are you too caught up in accusing me?

Come on, I predicted Wii music to sell well, does it mean I wanted it to.

Admit it, part of you wish this game would bomb, plenty of people share taht feeling too, espacially on GAF.

I swear these guys at GAF think FFXIII is a Japan only game, they are debating if SE will make their money back from the game's sale in JAPAN.

You should read my previous posts on ToG sales in that Media Create thread. I said like 3 or 4 times GAF has a stupid definition of bomb or what will make money, etc. and I already said FF XIII would make them tons of money in the same thread but some dude was saying that if the game ends up being overshipped it'll be a bomba or something stupid like that.

Espacially when more copies of the game will be sold outside of Japan. I really don't how much it will sell, but on the 360 will surely help. SE is cashing in big time right now.

Or, maybe I could be sneaky and steal from both of yas!

So what was the time we agree don the numbers usually leak? 2 AM est? Just wondering if i should stick around and watch Soriku and PSrocks cagematch or put in a blu ray.

I asked on GAF earlier and it does come around 2 AM EST (12:02 EST here now). But since FF XIII is the release this week it might come sooner. Who knows. I still have some homework to do...

sweetness. Ill watch conan and fallon and come back.
