I expect things to be very much like November NPD as far as who's in what place, and by how much some systems get outsold by others -- only real difference will be total overall sales.

I knew you were joking. :) I like to take "out there" statements (mistypes or otherwise) and consider what would happen if they were true. It's usually turns out to be quite fun.

For some reason I really think the PS3 is gonna outsell the PS2. The poor people who would buy a PS2 for Xmas usually do their shopping on Black Friday, and even then the PS2 barely outsold it.

Prediction entries must be in and finalized by 4 p.m. EST on Friday, January 11th. Format use is required if you want your entry counted.

Do not use decimal points or "m"/"million" in your predictions. If you predict over 1 million for a system, you can use 1000K or more to get to your prediction.

[NDS] 2,700,000 (I'm going crazy with DS now, since I underestimate it severely last month)
[WII] 1,800,000 (Wii Rain check effect or bust)
[360] 1,450,000 (did I overestimate ?, or underestimate again, just like Nov 07 ?)
[PSP] 1,050,000
[PS2] 1,000,000 (I might overestimate this one)
[PS3] 910,000 (will I underestimate this again ?)
[GBA] 200,000 (probably will not have real data for this one, just like last month.

It is very difficult to estimate the two supply constrained platform, Wii & NDS (may also include PSP and X360).

Wait, will Rain checks be added to the Wii totals this month?

See my response to this question on the first page. Regardless, some GameStop employees are already stating that their raincheck Wiis have all come in and been picked up.

Whatever happens to us each month GAF, we'll survive it... together.


See a better shop would be the Wii and the DS uniting into a giant mech.

So it includes Black Friday?
Then the numbers for december are (obviously) lower than that, like 200-400k lower, right?

It includes Black Friday and "North America," and it doesn't include the first 5 days of January. Black Friday + "North America" > 5 days in January, so the actual PS3 numbers will almost certainly be lower for December NPD. How much lower is an unknown.
