just a little more than an hour to go, get your popcorn ready, this should be legendary

More like 3 hours.

I prefer cashews to popcorn. But you gotta make sure not to eat too many.

Yeah Right, numbers never seem to show up until like 6-8 oclock

 

[Jammy]

The market close is at 4 p.m., (EST) isn't it?

 

[Empty_One]

The March 2007 NPD report should be released next Thursday, April 19th @ 4:30 p.m. EDT. The March reporting period is five weeks, March 4 - April 7.

According to the OP, it should come down in a little over an hour. Still a little early to pop the corn though, I'll agree

 

[suaveric]

Cowboy already said that his thread won't start until about 630 eastern.

Yes, but SC doesn't get numbers right when the market closes. He gets them a couple hours later.

That's when its released, but GAF doesn't get the numbers until a few hours later.

 

[Mononofu]

PS3 sales > 360 sales in March is totally ricockulous.

But I'd almost like to see it, just because NeoGAF would look like Xerxes' harem for 2 weeks: midget tumblers, goat-headed lute players and all.

:lol

That will be a glorious day.

 

[Kosma]

Ok so how many hours left?

Need to go to sleep soon!

 

[schuelma]

3 hours or so, unless sony cowboy gets stuck in traffic.

 

[PepsimanVsJoe]

Dammit I'm going to be at work so I'll miss the explosions.

Well at least I'll get to play in the remains :/.

 

[GhaleonEB]

I'm just going to post this on every page.

Numbers ready in

That's counting down to when sonycowboy estimates he'll have data to post.

 

[thefro]

I don't see any evidence out in the field for a PS3 surge... it'll be interesting to see the numbers. Of course I thought I saw some signs of PS3 getting a little momentum in February but that turned out to be dead wrong.

The first week of April being in the numbers will definitely help Wii sales as there was a big restock then at several places.

 

[rhino4evr]

so...about an hour till magic time, any last minute predictions? Not sure if Nintendo can live up to the estimated numbers, but we'll see.

So, we can expect the numbers....when ?

 

[Ikael]

Any comments about it? do you think that it will lead to a GAF meltdown or that we will just say "meh" as everything stays more or less the same as the previous month?

 

[RubberJohnny]

We need new NPD...
