March 2012 NPD Predictions - Closes April 9

1 to 10 odds Sony gives some vague inconclusive Vita numbers that are lumped in with whatever product they can find to compare or lump it in with.

Sony will just say something like "PS3 and Vita continue to exist. More stuff is coming out soon"
 
Am I not looking at the data right, or is this information contradicting?

1. Xbox 360 sold more than PS3 and Wii combined.

2. Xbox 360 has over 40% market share. (Handhelds not included)

Shouldn't that leave 60% to PS3 and Wii thus proving wrong the first statement?
Retail spend = hw, software, accessories

I was 7k off on my 360 prediction, yay. Hopefully I didn't blow any of the others.

Edit:

Code:
NPD	Me	Delta
371	378	7
337	284	53
225	247	22
175	175	0
		82

Not Bad.
 
So far, it looks like I've been pretty close, though I guess it'll come down to the Vita figure.

Guess, Actual, Difference
360 371 11
215 225 10
310 337 27
190 ? ?
175 175 0

are we still waiting for the Vita numbers,

Yep. Exactly. :)

Since not all the results are public, no numerical results are shown here. Also, rankings are just a counter, so if two people are tied, it isn't shown here.

Edit:
shira-bansho is just shinra now, right? If so, need to update his name in the rankings or they'll be two separate entries for him. :)

Gamasutra.
When does the "oh crap, I missed a month" grace start up this year? You know, the part where the figures include dropping a lowest score... :(
 

jvm

Gamasutra.
Yep.

Starting with March's results, only the top 2 of 3 months of the year, so far, are being counted for the overall rankings. It'll go to n-2 in September (Top 7/9 months) and stay there the rest of the year.
Well poop. :) Thanks guys. Stupid real life obligations. ;)
