So if someone made a new user name names nintendo_george and used a Nintendo logo avatar would you talk about him this much

 

[GnawtyDog]

Hes no mole if he openly represents the organisation no?

Has he said so?

Everyone knows I work at ND, but I am based in Florida. So Yes.

 

[PhantomFear]

I'm starting to think that NPD_George went with that name to throw people off the trail that he actually does work at NPD. Like "if I name myself NPD, no one will think I'm actually with NPD". It's so meta, but I BELIEVE.

I'm just going to leave this link here. If you scroll down there's an executive named George that works for NPD. Interesting...I'll let you draw your own conclusions.

What are the odds? It HAS to be him, right?

 

[Dinjooh]

No hints about hardware sales by insiders yet?

Sadly no, but tons from outsiders if that's your thing.

 

[mejin]

So PS4 has CoD and BF deals, plus Fallout 4 is selling better on it too. Damn...

Nintendo has fans. NPD is... NPD. It'd be like getting a tattoo of the Nielsen logo.

But if you google around, you will find a connection between George and NPD. We need to dig deeper!

Mgs5 is a lot like chipotle. First time you're there you are blown away by the "variety," everything tastes so good, etc. tenth time you realize you are getting fucked over for quacamole, the food is not memorable and basically made by a smelly man whose job it is to press on your food with his fists, and you have to poo.

It's enough to make me want to head home and take a shower.
I'd been addicted to the fob game but I was dependent on reflex mode and they've hugely nerfed it in the last update.

Holly shit this thread. I think we all need to close gaf and play video games or something. Then come back in 2 hours for the real fun.

I'm actually on vacation out of the state and I'm checking this lol. Kinda sad, but nah.

Why do you know about my uncle?

 

[super6646]

Either way, who the hell thought Halo 5 sold 1 million. Wasn't there a credable leak that said it sold 1.5 million in the US without any bundle's or digital sales.

 

[jroc74]

Honestly this thread is more fun for me than shitty mgs5

Woah, 77+ pages? Is this the longest an NPD thread has been?

A prediction thread probably.

And it doesnt even seem like a prediction thread..I started doing predictions late but still. It seems like the regular NPD threads. I almost expect to see cream post in here.

 

[Y2Kev]

This is the longest prediction thread in ever; I dunno, any of you maybe? Go home and play THE ORDER

 

[vin-buc]

For the official NPD results thread (i'll be on a commute home at that time)

Scoreboard Win For Xbox One

Scoreboard Win For PS4

This is my first piece of work so be kind!

George_NPD can construct complete sentences. His grammar and spelling are accurate, he also seems rational and reasonable. He sounds very much like a Harvard man.

Pretty much confirmed.

 

[Shenmue]

He openly represents to make you think he doesn't, when in reality he actually does.

my boss was complaining the other day that they now charge you an additional $3.50 for a quesarito at chipotle. micro-transactions lol

To be fair we could probably skip the cutscense and beat the game by the time the leaks hit.

Don't forget his politeness, also a common trait of the well educated.

So NPDecepticons trying to infiltrate AutoGAF. Interesting.

What if NPD George just stepped in like a boss and dropped the exact NPD numbers out of nowhere.

Like Daym

Yea he is very good with statistics and with analyzing but he is not an insider.

Of course... not.

Welp, the release just hit. People need time to download and parse. So, give it a bit.

[PhantomFear]

It's times like these that make me wish WikiLeaks cared more about US video game sales.
