Also, did any of you notice Rugrats came in #1, #2, and #3 in the latest Nielsen ratings with an audience of nearly 5 million viewers! WWF came in #4. All THQ licenses for 1999! It is going to be an incredible year. If you haven't already bought in here at $24 and change...well what the heck are you waiting for?

<<Also Rugrats reorders, Penny Racers, and possibly
WCW Nitro for N64.>>

Two quick comments. Don't forget GB reorders, as they should be quite nice considering the shortages of Bugs and RR in December. Also, I believe that Nitro 64 will ship on Feb. 9 or so. We usually don't get this close to a scheduled release date on the ebworld and gamelord sites without the game coming out more or less on time. So at worst it comes out by mid-Feb. And the initial volume should be a decent pct. of the overall Nitro 64 sales, since there isn't that much time for reorders on this puppy. OTOH, it could be a half shipment for Q1, with a nice reorder showing up very early in Q2, in the same way that Shao Lin is now scheduled for the first week of Q2.

Man, if Shao Lin is a hit we'll know it before Q1 earnings in April and it will blunt any worries about high WCW pct in the Jan.-March period. Of course I believe that Rugrats 64 will put any worries about THQ's non-WCW earnings to rest.

Go THQ!
