I have!
In the first Pokemon movie, there was a song called Brother my Brother. The lyrics to the song are "The anger burns, can't remember why", which I had always misheard as "The angry birds can't remember why". I often thought that angry birds would be a good name for a game or something. Aproximately 10 years later, Angry Birds was released! Funny thing is, I always imagined a red bird during that line, guess what the mascot of Angry Birds is! (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/2/2d/Angry_Birds_promo_art.png)
So have you ever predicted the future?
I managed to predict the identity of the antagonist in Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask if that counts.
I originally made the theory of who it would be as a joke, turns out it was correct.
I used to get dreams that would show me how friendships would turn out and they were fairly accurate. I also used to read tarot cards and they would also be fairly accurate.
It's all about interpretation tbf.
Quite a bit. I came up with an electric eel around 2003 for a new Pokemon named Eelectric and then Electrik happened. It didn't look like what I came up with but it was similar. I also came up with the move Heat Wave but with a different effect being that the target would become too hot to move for a few turns and end up being an open target. Also had an idea of Hail except it was called Hailstorm, cause Paralysis, and last a few turns. A few of my ideas of existing moves becoming TMs and HMs came true when Recycle, and Will-O-Wisp happened. I even came up with a move that acted like Psych Shift called Mind Swap where status ailments would be switched around. It was pretty freaky when I learned that Psycho Shift acted exactly like Mind Swap. My friends also made up a Baby version of Mr Mime called Jr Mime or Mime Jr (I forgot which it was but it was similar to Mime Jr.) as a joke. So I made my own and it looked almost like the actual Mime Jr. Except it had two fluffs of hair similar to Mr. Mime, no clown nose, rounder body, hands similar to Mr. Mime's, and a different color scheme.
I predicted the Zune would be a flop...
I have also predicted Michael Jackson would die from a plastic surgery error and I was half right. Also predicted Anna Nicole Smith and Amy Winehouse would be dead weeks before they went. I also knew that the Barbie vs Bratz lawsuit would never cease production of Bratz dolls.
Does getting football scores correct count?
I kinda predicted some last season, go me.
I saw this thread and predicted I would post in it
I was right
I predicted that Krum would catch the Snitch but Ireland would win
Today I mentioned we needed to check with a manager when to close the kitchen (and when to make one of them food).. said manager came in a minute later to ask if we knew what the dealio was, and to put through his food.
I predicted that Lucario, King Dedede, and Meta Knight would be in Smash Bros before Brawl was ever announced. Also thought about the Koopalings being in the games since the first game.

This is sort of like what my mum can do sometimes. My mum sometimes thinks of a specific person and a few minutes later, the phone rings and there they are, on the other end of the phone!
Maybe humans have some kind of sixth sense allowing them to know when someone is about to phone them or show up seemingly out of nowhere.
I had a theory about Dragon Age and who Flemeth really was.
Then I played Inquisition and I was RIGHT AHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA >:DDDDDD
I also predicted who the Colossal and Armored Titans were in AoT :p
I predicted something about the situation in our family (which I will not state here) and was spot on.
I predict that we all die in the end
I predicted that Clay Aiken was gay before he admitted it.

Hm, I might need your assistance if/when I decide to do an accumulator.

Don't count on me haha. For example, that 0-0 between Arsenal and Liverpool? I put 3-3 down for that. Also, put 4-2 down for Chelsea to beat Palace last time...CP won 2-1. Not reliable, haha.
i am now currently predicting that after I finished the Trespasser DLC for Inquisition I am going to scream at Bioware. Stay tuned to see if my psychic skills are correct
I predict Knights of the Old Republic III every year... Still nothing...

SWTOR (Star Wars The Old Republic) is kind of a sequel to KOTOR II, so you're not entirely wrong!
Yeah, but it doesn't really finish the story.

ya i was right i cried and was also very stunned and want to scream??
often, but i... strangely cant think of a reason r/n. i've managed to guess a fanfiction down to specific plotpoints twice, though. two separate teen titans fanfictions, down to the kill order in one of the two.

I KNOW. Now guess who my main/first file romanced.
DISTRESS. I predicted that my co-worker would flake out of his increased workload because he's a lazy bum.
And now his desk is vacant.
Don't procrastinate at work, kiddies
I kinda had this on and off idea of "hey what if people combined pokemon and mobile phones" and hoo boy now look at the hype.
