[360] 200k
[NDS] 600k
[PS2] 150k
[PS3] 290k
[PSP] 250k
[WII] 530k

To adjust my predictions to reality:
360: +5k
NDS: +8k
PS2: +5k
PS3: -65k
PSP: -28k
Wii: +25k

Off by a total of 136k this time. Not so bad compared to previous months. PS3 killed me, but I was pretty close for the first three.

Mine :
[360] 15k
[NDS] 54k
[PS2] 5k
[PS3] 15k
[PSP] 38k
[WII] 85k

Overall, not too good, but also not too bad.

rikitikitik, you managed to get lots of profit on simExchange ? (since your prediction is very close)

Naah, I haven't been there in a long time. I wish I bothered with my predictions, though.

DS -73k
Wii -75k
PSP -12k
PS2 +20k
PS3 +5k
360 +5k

Off my 190k, not to shabby and a considerable improvement over previous months.
 

starship

psycho_snake's and The Black Brad Pitt's B*TCH
[360] 240k (35k)
[NDS] 580k (28k)
[PS2] 140k (15k)
[PS3] 245k (20k)
[PSP] 220k (2k)
[WII] 590k (35k)

I was off by 135k, still think I can keep the crown for the #1 in overall 2008 and the last 3 months.

[PS3] 230k +5k
[PSP] 240k +18k

Off by just 146k. I was very close on all of mine except the 360. Damn.

[360] 220k -15k
[NDS] 630k -22k
[PS2] 160k +5k
[PS3] 280k +55k
[PSP] 270k +48k
[WII] 570k -15k

Guess I've overrated all of Sony's platforms. 160k difference ain't too bad.
 
PS3 and PSP failed me. The Wii kicked me in the nuts.

[360] 200005 +5k
[NDS] 615002 -7k
[PS2] 140006 - +15k
[PS3] 270004 - 45k
[PSP] 275003 - 48k
[WII] 650001 - 100k

I knew the PSP and PS3 would be close, they just fucked up my console order rankings now. :(
 
[NDS] 640,000 +32,000
[WII] 660,000 +105,000
[PS3] 245,000 -20,000
[PSP] 260,000 -38,000
[360] 235,000 +30,000
[PS2] 160,000 +5,000

Was off by 230,000 units.

[PS2] +23k
[PS3] -18k
[PSP] -89k
[WII] +20k
[360] -41k

Total: 268k off. Expected too much of a "travel upswing" from the handhelds too late into the summer I guess. Also got the PS3/XBox 360 order wrong.
*sigh*

Analyst war :
Unit base
98. Jesse2040 - 279,000
101. Pachter - 281,000
144. VGC - 402,297 (would have been #144 if included in donny2112's unit calculation)

Point base :
EEDAR (Jesse2040) : 97.225 (80.064 without PS2)
VGC : 95.786 (78.287 without PS2)

I couldn't put Pachter's result for point base, since I don't have the data for his prediction.
 

Yes Boss!

i'm not very good at this. :(

That was me last month. I went from a couple of first places to almost dead last for June.

I'm middle-of-the-road this month and I'm climbing my way back up the overall charts.

I've also missed January so I've got that handicap.
