That's been curbed this year, since the new promotion requires people to have valid college e-mail addresses in order to be eligible. It seems like the 360 did OK for a month where its highest profile release was a Suda 51 title.

Um yeah, microsoft wont be able to say they have the top selling system. Which is what we were talking about
Would microsoft give the numbers if they werent at the top of the chart?
I would think so either way, they would spin it positively about growth or some other milestone

I agree its best to pretend that the new Steel Battalion doesn't even exist. I wonder how bad it bombed.

can't believe how many people believe that site.
I'm sure that it will make Asura's Wrath look like MW3's first month sales.

Sure but all college students get their college email when they get accepted, so that's still a large amount of people who have access to this deal.

didnt we see with RE raccoon city
quality and sales arent related?
I wouldnt be suprised if it did fine

They would still say it, because they don't count handhelds.
Didn't you have to have an edu address last year as well?

I am pretty sure they do. I remember seeing 2 seperate streak milestones 1 for consoles, the other overall
fyi I am happy pokemon conquest is up there
srpg power
So, on 3DS there are more Marvel fans than DC ones ( Spiderman doing better on 3DS than DS & Wii, while Lego Batman doing worse than Wii & DS versions)? :lol

Holy shit, Pokémon Conquest.
Didn't expect that, considering the obscurity of the gameplay for the Pokémon fanbase, and the DS software situation. Very impressive.

If I'm not mistaken (I work at one of the participating retailers), the .edu/.cc requirement is new this year.

Battlefield has surprisingly decent legs.

I would usually say never underestimate pokemon
but I thought for sure the srpg gameplay would of nullified that

Batman Arkham City? Don't they mean "'10 out of 10' Game of the Year Editon?"
He said it was around 10k of that. In fact, he gave another hint -- to look at June 2008 (and there's only one system whose sales were in that range).

Roguelikes are pretty niche too, yet the Pokemon Mysterious Dungeon titles managed to sell quite well.
PS2.
Yeah, PS3 is the only real holdup. I think the others should be good enough for predictions, but would just need a little better PS3 number. May just go with 190K, since PS2 was < 195K in June 2008, so the 10K was probably a downward range. Will see if any new info comes up.

190K is closer to the raw number than 195K and should be acceptable for prediction reconciliation. The other numbers are accurate.
Thx, mate!
Great, thanks!

Congratulations, noobie and Zero-Crescent!
Btw can you share the excel file for the data on google.. so that i can see my past results too.. i think i missed one month of the prediction league...
They don't count handhelds. In the past they've said they're the top selling console even when 3DS outsold it.
Anyway ... I need to sart predicting again, I'm way down the bottom now :-(
No, since some of the months couldn't have the numerical results posted. You can look through the different monthly threads by using the Archive link in the first post, though, to see what results were posted each month. As far as missing a month this year, you missed last month, but were in the other 5.
Edit:
For most of pre-2011, you can see the full monthly numerical results here.
