Weekly Pyra Preorder Stats


Well, between the numbers image thread and this thread, I hope we've been a part in at least ensuring there's something to look at in the gaps between official news posts.

A week for US pre-orders this week. The first, for a 4GB US cellular unit came in yesterday afternoon, while the second and last for the week, a 2GB version of the same, came in yesterday evening, US time.

As above, the preorders were split as follows:
Non-cellular units: no change
US cellular units: +2 units (4GB +1, 2GB +1)
Euro cellular units: no change

So while that's steady progress, on the longer scale it looks like a holding pattern while we're waiting for news of 4GB boards working reliably across the board. We've also had no prototype videos recently that I can recall, although with 3D still not working I guess that's not too surprising. It feels a long time since Notaz got Ikaruga running under emulation on a devboard , apparently in a handful of hours while he was at a show, although in that case he used an old kernel that supported the various binary blobs out of the box - getting binary blobs running under a new kernel API can be tricky. At least sebt3 is making the repo into a nice place to browse the packages that devs have been uploading.

There may be a shift towards 2GB units slowly happening. In the past month there have been three more 2GB pre-orders, but the total number of 4GB units has actually gone down by five thanks to various cancellations. Those three 2GB pre-orders are for one non-cellular standard unit, one US-cellular unit, and one EU-cellular unit, so it's not focussed on any particular 2GB variant yet.

That headline figure of 0 units pre-orders elides some movement from non-cellular units towards cellular equipped ones, plus lots of action behind the scenes.

We started with the positive pre-order of a standard wifi-only 4GB unit on Monday lunchtime, and later that day someone pre-ordered a EU 2GB unit as well. Fast forward to Tuesday night / Wednesday morning though, and the cancellations come in for this week; three standard 4GB units are taken off the books over the course of about half an hour. To finish up, a US 4GB pre-order came in on Friday before sunrise, I think, unless someone from outside the US is pre-ordering US units.

As above, the preorders were split as follows:
Non-cellular units: -2 4GB units (+1-3)
US cellular units: +1 4GB unit
Euro cellular units: +1 2GB unit

So we're still holding formation till progress is reported. My own 2GB EU preorder becomes one of ten of the things thus far preordered. The cancellations aren't sticking to their once every three weeks schedule any more, but that's not a problem, and indeeds probably means ED's keeping on top of cancellations a little bit better than he was before.

So, this was a quiet week by all appearances. Only thing to report seems to be an EU-4G 4GB unit pre-ordered on Thursday evening.

As above, the preorders were split as follows:
Non-cellular units: no change
US cellular units: no change
Euro cellular units: +1 4GB unit

So, we're now only three away from the highest midweek total we have reached thus far (1097, a number we briefly hit in week 70 before some cancellations came in) - and we had cancellations processed last week. It's hardly stellar performance, but in a couple of weeks we might be closer to a new max total.
 
HASTY DOES NOT RHYME WITH EIGHTY!!!

Good updates though.
 
how are you pronouncing hasty?

technically you only need the last syllable to rhyme, though it's more "pleasing" to rhyme more of the word. "shady" would have gotten a bit closer, but hasty has assonance and rhymes the last syllable.
 
I'd class shady and eighty as a close rhyme, and no closer than hasty and eighty personally. Shady ends in a 'dy' while hasty and eighty both end 'ty'. Now, hasty ends 'sty' which I guess is your problem. IIRC I used 'haughty' in one of my previous updates for a round number, which I think it the closest rhyme I can think of, but I'm trying to not reuse rhymes that I can remember. It's certainly getting harder, I can tell you, and I suspect I've probably reused one or two already.
 
well, you are pronouncing eighty very properly then; for me it's more of a d than a t.

hoping for some super awesome news soon so we can avoid quibbling over rhymes.

"in the darkest of times,
i can't find a rhyme
but i know i'll make it through this time."
 
"the rhymes were getting shady when you reached week 80"

ok lets help him with future ones. Sillier the better.

Uh, this was not such a quiet week. We started off with a positive preorder for a US 4GB unit on Monday morning, but in the early hours of Tuesday morning an EU 4GB unit was cancelled, then 2 US 4GB units went, and then we even lost 2 US 2GB units and 1 EU 2GB unit. Then for the rest of the week all was as quiet as a mouse, until on Saturday lunchtime another US 4GB unit was cancelled for good measure.

As above, the preorders were split as follows:
Non-cellular units: no change (bizarrely)
US cellular units: -3 units (-2 2GB +1-2 4GB)
Euro cellular units: -6 units (-1 2GB -5 4GB)

My predictions of a new maximum grand total last week might have been premature ;) But I guess according to my 'every third week's a negative' prediction, we were overdue one, although I hadn't seen one this big coming. Now I really hope these new CPU boards fix the 4GB problem, and the next round of case designs finally fixes the shoulder buttons, and that cooling is better. Then, as far as I know the only remaining problems would be software ones.
 
Think it's probably black Friday/Christmas that people are getting tight on money? At least when the pyra is complete there won't be all this yoyo sales going on as much. I'm just hoping Ed will be able to come out ahead on this in the long run.
