The Force is indeed strong in market projects and it hasn’t yet launched in Asia-Pacific. Despite a few bumpy rides since launching in December 2011, Star Wars TOR is growing.
”We continue to feel comfortable with our Star Wars estimates which are an important part of our street-high FY13 non-GAAP EPS estimate of $1.36,” read a Cowen and Company note from analyst Doug Creutz.
”We estimate 2MM paying subs by the end of June 2012 (and then sustained for the remainder of the year).
