CharTrack for 12/11/99: WM2k#1 on N64 and #8 on All Formats chart (Remember this title released on 12/10/99; so just two days of sales). Also THQ is listed with EA for FIFA 2000 at #2 because of GBC version. ctw.co.uk From CTW: >>Konami seals monster licence deal Konami and Universal Studios have formed a powerful new alliance to develop and publish a number of high profile licences on next generation formats, CTW can reveal. Having previously relied on its own homegrown development and conversions from its arcade business, the move marks the first significant licensing partnership by Konami. << ------------------------------------------------------------ Also saw this and wondered: >>Independence Day for GTIA GT Interactive Australia is to retain its independence and begin a push into Asia, despite the Infogrames takeover last month. Managing director Julian White has taken charge of the Asia/Pacific region and all staff have been retained. White is working on plans to open GTI offices in several Asian cities, where the company already has agents.<< ctw.co.uk ......................................................... News feature works on THQ's UK website; Hintline goes live at 75p/minute. (Use your browser to scroll down) thq.co.uk ........................................................ The SouthPeak games keep getting pushed back, EB shows March 1st for the PC games and no mention of N64 soccer title. ................................................... EB shows 1/2/00 release date for Danger Girl. I can find no rating for this title. This info from n-Space site: >>Play as any one of three adventurous Danger Girls Equip your girls with a wide array of weapons and spy gear Fast-paced, globe-trotting adventure in 14 levels and 6 unique environements Seamless exploration in vast outdoor and indoor environments Realistic, interactive, beautifully-realized worlds with a wide variety of play mechanics<< n-space.com Maybe THQ should have got the license for the upcoming Charlie's Angels movie and called the game Charlie's Angels. ....................................................... From the message boards; Xtension should be done in March and first go on sale in Germany. .......................................................... Dreamcast sales are strong, but I wonder if Sega's Crazy Taxi title coming out two months early will affect Felony Pursuit's sales? RIP N64 but WM2K has helped it this Christmas season. Andrew

Todd, Well, I received my WM2K game yesterday. And the stock hit $31 today. But I'm not going to comment about short-term TA ;o) How does it feel to have the power to move markets? It must be a burdensome responsibility. <g> Could you please move THQI down a little more [i.e., retest of 31] this morning so I can pick up some additional shares? TIA. jttmab P.S. FWIW, THQI hit the 50-day EMA yesterday at 31.

Todd, as I said in my post to Ray Norris, I wish you would reconsider on your short term TA calls. You have been quite right and you have been quite wrong on THQI's short term moves over the 2+ years I have followed this board--so much for the theory that your or anyone else's TA will become a self-fulfilling prophecy--but your thoughts have always been useful to me, even when I've disagreed with them, and I know I'm not alone. FWIW. Glad you got your WM2K. Hope it's a blast. Will be interesting to see if the shorts manage to hold it below 31 today.
