@pilias_simber, I'm not saying you are arguing for the 25 million position. But obviously some are voting with their DKP that it should be that high, and I just think it's an utterly foolish position. The information you provided only further strengthens my belief; it's way too high and needs to drop to something more reasonable.
I, personally, wouldn't say I hate the new system, but it obviously needs a little more refinement.
I'm not arguing that it should be at 25 million, I haven't done research on this stock in general, I was hoping to simply outline some factors that I wasn't sure people were looking at in determining the stock price so they could get a more accurate position.
I don't take positions in IPOs until the market maker is put in because I hate the system.
@pilias_simber, that's true, but is it enough to warrant a 250% increase for the sequel? Or even a doubling, if we assume Brain Age 1 peters out to around 12 million. I'll concede that my 12 million estimate is low, but I still hold that 25 million is far too high.
at the E3 Press Conference it was mentioned that the first Brain Age sold 10 million copies.
this stock has sold 5.5 million copies so far and has yet to launch in Europe and the United States.
I am not sure how popular Brain Age did in these different territories but we should keep in mind that Brain Age 2 will probably follow the usual pattern for sequels to successful games and outsell it by a good percentage.
The install base has grown as has the brand name of Brain Age 2.
@Hmmsphil, good question. I expect it to do well, but 25 million? Even the 16 million I shorted it at seems way too high. I'd put it in the 12 million neighborhood, at best.
More details on the various new tasks the game uses to train your brain. Goes into more detail than the other previews.
"Based on what we played, Brain Age 2 should be a great follow up to the original game."
"Once you've earned a participation stamp for the day, you're free to play Virus Buster, a laid-back, stylus-controlled remake of Dr. Mario."
"[sign finder] makes the game less a matter of simple memory drills and more a matter of deductive reasoning."

I suspect the people who stayed up late last night decided to shoot the price up that high to make their profit margin.
Its the issue with taking out the marketmaker.
