I see a beautiful way to present backpedaling and money wasting
It's not a random guy, editor at Gamecrate.
But if they only barely beat the ps4 like 100k to 200k is it a strategy they are willing to continue
Lol
See, now I can't tell who's joking.

Sure why not? The money they've lost is literally nothing to Microsoft. They'll make it up in no time with subscriptions and game sales.

Eh, I know a lot of people expected it because of Titanfall, but I don't know, this time it feels like "forrealz".
You're right though, we don't have real NPD data just yet, it was a random tweet and the guy could be full of BS.

But this came out of that thread so it was worth it:
Just curious you all know them better than me I just like the system
What reality? Its one month, thats all.
CosmicQueso already stated MS won a long time ago. Like hours and hours ago. Don't know why people are ignoring it.

*shrug* I know. I said so before but people are still holding on to their hopes I guess.

I always find it hard to believe Phil wasn't apart of the original plan anyway. He wasn't just some guy they brought in out of no where. Or he was oblivious to this all? They got rid of the bad Xbox faces and brought in Phil with a new deck of persona cards.
Not complaining. It worked. Phil looks like the messiah of Xbox now. And it doesn't matter in the long run as long as Microsoft treats their customers right and fixes their wrongs.

I guess the Shuhei Yoshida effect wasn't enough to win November in the States.

This is hilarious.
When the hell did he say "Four arms would be better than four breasts"???
Right off to bed ... Fingers crossed in the morning the servers will have crashed, recovered, crashed again, then a flood of threads, posts and bans, then I'll skip to the end and dissect what ever is left over good luck all with your predictions. Remember everyone's a winner*

good luck all with your predictions. Remember everyone's a winner**

it's a sign.
But it's not clickableeee and I'm laaaaazy.
OOoh someone provided a link. Thanks!
Lol this wasn't even a response to anything?? He just decided to wake up and tweet this? Is this in reference to anything at all?
That's kind of bothers me...anybody in Phil's position would have done the same. It was the only logical course of action. Yet, we're getting the sense that he rose from the ashes, fought against the dissenting voices and the evil overlord at MS and overcame great hardship to get where we are today.
Heck, the first 180s happened under Ballmer/Mattrick's reign, why is no one making 'faceless heroes' threads about 'em?

I'm not going to tease. Expect PR. Enjoy the weekend. Aqua, best of luck to you. See you all on the other side.
I hope Wii U sales are decent.
Define decent? 200k?

12 minutes until an hour left until the NPD thread!
So an hour and 12 minutes until the NPD thread?
No, that's bad, last year sold 223k. I'm hoping for something like 350k.

What would decent results even be for the Wii U at this point?
I mean to be up YOY wouldn't Wii U have to more than triple its October performance? I mean I guess it's the holidays and a Nintendo console but I don't have high hopes for the thing.
Edit: Actually looking at Oct 2013, Wii U managed to quadruple its sales OCT 2013 - NOV 2013 so what do I know?

Still think that should have been added to the Shu effect list.
