Well played.

My predictions:

PS2: 320k
X360: 260k
GCN: 45k
XBox: 10k
DS: 300k
PSP: 280k

Can someone retitle this the predictions thread? It morphed into it but I don't think we'll get the usual number if it's not titled correctly.

I think Okami was undershipped, every Bestbuy in my district was sold out in 3days. That could hurt its sales :(.

1) I don't see anyone predicting over 300k
2) your numbers won't count unless you give estimates for every system, no lol

This is just a guess here, but some of you good e-people aren't adjusting your guestimates for the five week NPD period versus the typical four week periods seen in July and August. I know it was mentioned on page one, so maybe you are taking it into consideration. But low PS2 predictions make me think otherwise.

Does anyone know how many black and pink DSs were shipped in September, because that really could inflate the DS number. Every store I've gone to in the last few weeks has been sold out of black and had maybe 3-6 pink left. I'm expecting a pretty big sellthrough % on those, just depends on how many were in stores. They were out for more than two weeks, so I'll base these on 250,000 shipped, for no real reason at all.

NDS 360K (160K white, 200 black/pink)
PS2 290K
360 260K
GBA 175K
PSP 170K

Prediction thread eh?

PS2: 270k
Xbox: 8k
GC: 45k
Xbox 360: 245k
GBA: 180k
DS: 310k
PSP: 180k

Reasonably comfortable with everything except DSL. I predict its numbers based on the release of the new colours staving off what would otherwise be a more significant decline, but who knows.

Everything is significantly down week over week reflecting usual trends from August > September.

It's really weird switching back and forth from the heavy discussions of the OT to the NPD threads. :lol

I hope Rocket Slime broke at least 50k. Probably didn't but definitely deserves to. Same goes for Ookami and 100k.

Both probably would if they were released near the beginning of the month... with only a week and a half, though, it's doubtful.

I think its too soon ...

Agreed. I'll still predict here later, though.

P.S. I think most people are missing the first post on page 2. That shows what September numbers would be if there was no change from August's weekly averages.
 
This thread is BS.

Last month we ahd a beautiful prediction thread with July and June numbers, as well as last years numbers so we could make educated guesses.

Half assed threads FTL
