Thanks for both replies. Very clear. I only have one comment to add.
"and also possibility for games to miss their announced launch dates"
It seems to me that this is the primary reason to _support_ expansion of futures contracts. My understanding of this Exchange is that it is most useful as a predictive market. Why not leverage its predictive power to actual release dates rather than just sales figures.
I'm not going to go complain to admins about any of this just yet. I'm still just trying to get my head around this place.
