Media Create Prediction League : December 2023 [FINAL RESULTS!]

Hello everyone !

While we are still waiting on the final results of November, it is now time to open the December edition of the Prediction League !

We are aiming to host this prediction contest every month, when the release schedule allows it.

The rules are simple, you can make and edit your prediction on the following titles until December 10th 22:59 CEST which basically means that as soon the COMG orders chart is updated, you can no longer change your prediction. So don't edit your post after that deadline.

At the end of the month, the results will be shared and the predictors will be ranked by units and %mean error. This is the third yearly edition of this contest already.

The tracked period will be December 4th to December 31st (4 weeks). I also ask you to respect the following formatting :

[Platform] Full name of the game (number of days accounted) : 100 000

LOL, that's gonna be last place for me :D
 
LOL, that's gonna be last place for me :D
It is 50/50 for my feelings. My HW Switch-prediction was 350.000 to 356.285, DQM3 was 150.000 to 168.425. PS5 being 200.000 to 168.425 isn‘t good but it‘s not horrible either. However 250.000 to 398.890 for SMBW and 200.000 to 317.725 for Momotaro are frightening.

*removing the two most extreme predictions

The ratio of over/underprediction is not too bad except for PS5 which was overpredicted by everyone except 1 person and Super Mario Wonder which was underpedicted by more than 4 people out of 5

First results!
Dragon Quest Monsters 3 (28 days)

U4SKcsB.png


Plagued by stock issues, DQM3 came out a bit below IB expectations. This is good rebound for Dragon Quest spin-offs. With around 164.000 units over the last 4 weeks of December, the error margin of the IB consensus is a very good 4,9%.

Congrats to @Malden with their excellent 165.000 units prediction, @Smelly and @Rellik are rounding up the podium at #2 and #3 very nicely. In total, only 8 members were below 10% of error margin.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder (28 days)

cWXrohv.png


With an average of 100k units sold per week, Mario Wonder soared well past IB expectations


Congrats to @BTB123 with their excellent 400.000 units prediction, @Astral_lion02 and @Rellik (again) are rounding up the podium at #2 and #3 very nicely. In total, only 7 members were below 10% of error margin.

Momotaro Densetsu: World (28 days)

Bvc71Ps.png


A lot of range in terms of IB predictions from Momotaro, with some around 100k and others closer to 600k. Overall the game sold 5,6% above the IB consensus with around 318.000 units.

Congrats to @brutaka3 with their excellent 320.000 units prediction, @Chris1964 and @Lelouch0612 are rounding up the podium at #2 and #3 very nicely. In total, 16 members were below 10% of error margin.
 
Hardware results
Nintendo Switch Hardware (28 days)

AK6SpDe.png


Switch hardware came a bit below expectations, with an average of less than 90K/week whereas the IB consensus banked on a 95K/week average. IB consensus is therefore 6,7% too high.

Congrats to @Bodokoh, @Maluigi and @Smelly which are all tied at #1 with their excellent 350.000 units prediction. In total, 18 members were below 10% of error margin.

PS5 hardware (28 days)

8s8zC4f.png



Another underperformance for hardware vs IB expectations, with an average of only 42K/week whereas the IB consensus was above 50K/week. Overall the IB consensus was 20,8% too high.

Congrats to @Crjunior35 and @Richter Belmont with their excellent 170.000 units prediction, @Smelly (again!) is rounding up the podium at #3 very nicely. In total, only 7 members were below 10% of error margin.
