185K for 3DS to use for predictions seem okay, then?

185K for 3DS to use for predictions seem okay, then?

Huum, i'm ok with this.

All considering my 165k was the third best prediction, and considering i was not much off with PS4 and XBO (10k difference from both), i think to be very high this month.

Yeah that's good.

 

[maxcriden]

It's Minecraft Wii U in the top 6 that shocks me more than Pokémon. Get that on the NX and you've got yourself a ballgame.

 

[Ryng_tolu]

Btw, i think 3DS winning the month deserved a thread.

[Sterok]

The biggest missed opportunity is Minecraft not making it to the 3DS. If they could've worked that out Minecraft would've been even more unstoppable. Hopefully the NX version works out.

August is going to be fun with XB1 S, No Man's Sky, and $150 New 3DS. All three systems have something nice going on.

Congratulations, Vena!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Was so close with first place lol

Vena, you must die, hope with an atrocius and terrible death.

Seriusly though, congrats buddy.


TOP 10 of the year overall, whoho!

 

[KillerMan91]

Didn't think I place that high this month with my results but it seems most people were even more off lol. Overall top 4. Oh yeah.

 

[Vena]

Woo!

3DS killed me D:

I SHOULD BE #1

Congrats, Vena!

Ryng and I have been telling you guys not to doubt the 3DS for like an entire month, haha.

Looks like Vena is first even withouth 3DS. He was super damn spot on with both PS4 and XBO.

3DS July sales

2011 - 89,000
2012 - 131,000
2013 - 150,000
2014 - 108,000
2015 - 104,000
2016 - 182,000

2014 VS 2016, first 7 months

2014 - 872,000
2016 - 882,000

2014 ended with 2.57 million... i think 2016 can surpass it unless NX annunce crush 3DS sales.

 

[Primethius]

Given the data we have on some of the other SW titles, I'm assuming that MH is the #1 when compared to other titles without bundles, correct?

Yeah the software charts don't include bundles. You have to go into the hardware for bundled sales.

 

[Shizza]

Given the data we have on some of the other SW titles, I'm assuming that MH is the #1 when compared to other titles without bundles, correct?

For single SKU it is.

For combined SKUs, we have the following numbers from Aqua:
Minecraft >175k
GTAV 172k

How often is it that neither of the top games on the Nintendo platforms are published by Nintendo?

Gotcha. Was just checking to see if the range Aqua provided could be narrowed or not given the other data she provided. Guess not, ah well.

 

[GifGafIsTheBestGaf]

amazon has a lot of bundles right now, maybe SFV can have a chance!

$349

 

[Primethius]

Finally, it might break the top 100 in NPD.

 

[Ryng_tolu]

For the fun, a bit comparation; 3DS monthy boost:

USA: +42%
Italy: +33%

 

[watdaeff4]

$349

That's a great bundle at a great price

 

[Javin98]

Damn, another great month for me! Fourth place! And I'm in the top three for 2016 overall! Really hope I can keep it up or at least remain in the top five.

Congrats, Vena!

 

[Ryng_tolu]

lol, for an intere week 3DS was sold out on Amazon, then it back on stock and after one day was already sold out again....

What's funny is that this is only amazon.

 

[Jon Carter]

I really hope Nintendo's mobile strategy will work. If they can use mobile as a successful advertisement platform for their core business, the same way Pokemon Go is working for now, I'm gonna be really impressed.

Well deserved. The 3DS truly is a great system and it deserves to sell better outside Japan.

Monday, it seems. Was delayed for some reason.

Any ETA on Monday?

 

[donny2112]

Public NPD release should be at 6:30 p.m. EDT today. This is also in the OP, for reference. There have already been two threads on the sales, so far, though. One for XB1 beating PS4. Another for 3DS beating all. Just neither was the official NPD PR version.

Man Overwatch is holding amazingly. Also if you notice Destiny has been popping up on the charts since digital has been added. It being a big online title it's not too surprising but it seems the game has had a very long tail digitally

Hey Donny, 3DS is 182K

If you are not boring, you can update the predictions with 3DS at 182k and not 185k?

 

[donny2112]

Hey Donny, 3DS is 182K

If you are not boring, you can update the predictions with 3DS at 182k and not 185k?

1) It's still an estimated value, so would still convert it to a 5K multiple. (e.g. 180K)
2) It's not exceptionally different than the used value.
3) There have been much farther off results used in predictions before (like 10K difference with no ordering changes), because that was the information we had, at the time, and we agreed to use it.

Not going to say that I'll never change the results if better data comes in, but this month is good. Thanks!
