| Last time I checked 10 x 666 = 6,660. |

| 10 x 666% = 10 x 6.66 = 66.6.
And it's an increase by 666%, so that's 10 + 10 x 666% = 76.6.

| Okay Balla bad maths by me. So if it was selling 10 a week it now be selling 17.66. But still my point the number sales mean nothing if we don't know the original number. |

| Almost: calcu-derp from me in that last post. It'd be 76.6.
Of course, 0 x 666% = 0, as you say. |

| I got a vision of a new Kid Icarus game for Wii U being announced at E3, don't know if anyone else has mentioned it but I'm putting that one in the hat. It'll also be 93.8% more playable than on 3DS thanks to the Wii U having BUTTONS! BUTTONS! BUTTONS! |

| I hope they don't do another Kid Icarus game. It was perfectly self-contained, and Sakurai said that he wanted it to be so. I wouldn't ICE CLIMBERS mind seeing them ICE CLIMBERS revive another IIIIIIIICE CLIIIIIIIIIIIMBERS old franchise though. |

I'm sensing some sort of hidden message in this post, but I can't quite decipher it. |

| I'm definitely not suggesting a remake. By most accounts, the original IC is pretty bad. I'm suggesting IC x the ratio of KI to KIU, if that makes sense (it doesn't): something that plays very differently. I'll explain what I mean in Drunkalilly's thread, since I think it fits better there. |

Nintendo
Wii U: Super Smash Bros out Q4 2014 It's Holiday 2014 now, so right then we all hope Wii U Price Drop Q4 2014 Not yet but gather there will be a smash bundle that's well priced Zelda U shown at E3 with a slated 2015 release It was shown but no date Mistwalker announce new game Nope nothing GameCube Game's not sure if just be VC releases or HD remakes at retail Not yet Third Party no where to be seen Right it seems but not sure how we base this as there's the odd one or two
3DS: Reaches 60m SKU sold by April 2015 On about 45m I think 2014 not as good as 2013 games wise Looks like it Majoras Mask HD Nope but still teased Pokemon Z September Launch Nope but were getting Ruby & Sapphire Pokemon Blue/Red Released on VC, compatible with Pokemon Bank Read above Super Smash Bros 3DS outsells Wii U version Time will tell
Sony
PS4: PS4 continues to break records like fast selling console to 10m including best launch in Japan ever It did have best launch in japan, on about 8m at the minute Uncharted the something something not 4, shown at E3 release of 2015 slated It does have 4 in the title, was shown and is coming 2015 The Order 1866 out Q4 2014 comes with access to Uncharted Multiplayer BETA Delayed till Feb, no BETA to help sell it Last of Us Next Gen edition announced to come out long side DLC I was right but date slightly out GTAV Next Gen edition announced and is PS4 console exclusive It's real and PS4 version has exclusive content but is on PC & ONE Gaikai delay's to Q1 2015 Right for EU Last Guardian shown at E3, wins best in show slated for Q4 2014 but is delayed Still nothing on this TGS please EA's exclusive PS4 game is Star Wars Battlefront Nope, still waiting on this unless Hardline is meant to be it seeing how it's been pushed on PS4 Agnis Philosophy is a Game and is exclusive to PS4 Nope TGS maybe
PS3: Has steady 3rd party support but lacks any major 1st party game Looks like I will be right
VITA: VITA 2000 released in the west Right Continues to struggle compared to 3DS Right, well has had some good weeks in japan but overall struggles Get's lot's of PS4 companion second screen apps Nope Only one big 1st party game which links to a PS4 game Nope it seems Sony Market's this as PS4 companion premiere Pretty much
Microsoft:
360: Has steady 3rd party support but lacks any major 1st party game Looks like I will be right
Xbox One: Sells around half of PS4's number's worldwide, Xbox One really struggle's to sell in Japan Well PS4 has sold 7m, ONE shipped 5m which means it's sold about 4m which almost half right at the moment Titanfall becomes best selling Xbox One game, Console sells triple on the games launch It sales went up a lot and EA claim it is the Number 1 selling ONE game Halo 5 announced for Q4 2014 Nope, we are getting a Halo title with the collection a 5's BETA Price Drop Q4 2014, Kinect still bundled with console WRONG Kinect still pushed WRONG RARE announce new game, downloadable title Nothing from them maybe Gamescom
Other's: STEAM machine does okay numbers System has been delayed due the controller, so still might but when who knows SEGA announce's Shenmmue I & II HD Nothing Square delays Final Fantasy XV Not shown at E3, hope to see at TGS where it will be delayed to March 2016 Ubisoft Teases Beyond Good & Evil 2 Nope, but the president said it's still coming

| My post e3 review can be summed up simply as: wrong on all accounts bar smash which did get a sort-of delay but not to the degree I was predicting. Nintendo even managed to actually properly advertise things this time! |

- Nintendo:
MK8 to lift Wii U sales... a little bit. Reaches number 7 in the charts, below a gaggle of shootybang games and annual re-releases. Wrong! It's done much better than that. Nintendo to have at most one surprise to reveal at E3, with all others being leaked beforehand. Possibly by Nintendo themselves. Wrong! ORAS was leaked beforehand, but Ninty made up for it with several surprises. Yoshi Yarn to take centre-stage at E3. The end duly declared for Nintendo. Half. YWW did actually get a good showing, but if anything, people were more enthusiastic about Nintendo after E3 than before. SSB4 to be pushed back to early 2015. The end duly declared for Nintendo... again. Wrong! A small push-back for SSB3D, but only to Autumn. Pokken to be a 2014 Christmas game. Nobody buys it. Nothing yet... Pokémon Z to be announced near the end of the year, with a new Zygarde form(e). Only the one this time. Can't tell yet. Starfox, in some form or another. (They had one on the DS. It has to turn up at some point.) Going to take this as a yes! Metroid, in some form or another. (Reggie wearing that pin. It can't just be a coincidence/trolling.) Seems unlikely at this stage. X to have one ghastly crippling flaw that pushes it down into the 70%s. (Honestly, that thing just looks too good at the moment.) We won't know until 2015, so I'm going to include this as a half on the basis that that's its ghastly flaw. Nintendo to continue to have a dearth of advertising and drift along in "third place", despite the relative lack of great games on the BBoPs. Advertising actually seems to be happening so far, but I'm still banking on the second half of my prediction.
Sony, Microsoft, PC, Ouya, Apple:
More true than I could imagine, actually. Still nobody on here, despite our substantial multiformat base, on the brink of buying the BBoPs apart from Masofdas. 2/10 so far, then (3/11 if you include my last point), with 4/10 points outright contradicted. |

| Oh, didn't realise there were other people on here stupid forward-looking enough to have acquired a PS4 this early. Really, though, the fact that the last four PS4 thread posts are all yours says bundles, don't you think? Not dissimilar in the One thread. Yup, I'd say that is still pretty accurate! |

Just not much happening on the ps4 at the moment, hopefully the few of us who have got one will start talking about likes of hmm dam it all the good game's are 3rd party this year. |

- Bloodborne thread which really should be in the playstation section not genreal
Thought it was more apt that it went into general at the time as nothing was officially confirmed & the chance that it was a souls game I would've probably asked it to be merged with the Souls thread. |
