Anecdotal stories of "missed" sales are also characteristic of any product with greatly increasing sales. Always possible that a co will report less than expected sales anytime they have to report. But assuming this from individual stories of isolated stores is hardly DD, to say the least.

I did not mean to imply that I thought they were going to miss estimates due to this problem. I was only pointing out that IF they DID miss estimates the issue would suddenly become more interesting to posters here. Don't you agree? Perhaps the anecdotal and isolated reports would suddenly become more meaningful. Doesn't your idea of DD include primary research? And how meaningful are the reports from the same posters that the games are still hot and selling well? Only isolated? Only casually interesting?

One of the nice things about this thread is that it hasn't fallen prey to those "trash mgt for any reason" posters that I see smelling up other threads I follow.

Boy that was really subtle :) Remember to turn on the rose colored reality protection bubble as I leave. I hope that for the sake of the continued comfort of the SI thread buddies that Radica never gets the attention from the street it deserves.
