That works great for free items, but when items cost a number of credits and you need to spend actual money (i.e. a credit card or a prepaid PSN card) to get those credits, it’s not as useful. You invariably end up with unused credits and/or money in your wallet and you can’t transfer those back to your main account.

You can gift yourself on the Lockwood machine by creating and setting up another user on your console.

Great article, Norse. It’s always fascinating to see the sales trends on a monthly basis -- it kinda gives you an idea of Home’s demographics, and the kinds of trends that catch on quickly, and those that fail miserably.

One little thing about the Lockwood gift machine -- why can’t I gift the items to myself? It’s annoying to try and convince someone on my friends list to spend real money on me; I usually have to try and find someone who wants the same item in return so we both break out even. In rarer cases, I’ve actually given real money to a local friend so that he can gift me the items I want or need for my spaces.

I’m not sure if Cutthroats’ coin bundle will sell all that well -- it’s quite easy to max out your level in about 6 hours of playtime; same with Hunters vs. Yeti.
