Crazzy, yeah I am basically guessing by looking at trends. But here is how I'd address your questions. 1) 4 months is not much time. But look at this way: Wii is meeting Nintendo's expectations for sales, PS3 is not meeting Sony's. 2) Reaction was largely positive among the hardcore. But casuals don't know about it yet, and I don't think many will care. 3) 1 million preorders is what I saw. I don't think Sony can ship that many to the various countries of the PAL region by the end of March, which is why I have sales strong through April. 4) Don't think this has a big effect on Sony's pricing strategy. 5) Isn't that part of the problem? Sony and Microsoft don't know either. 6) Isn't that part of the problem? Customers don't know either, if they did... 7) Wii has Super Paper Mario, and at least one of the trio of Galaxy, Brawl, Prime will be out by fall 8) Well it won't be less... 9) That is true. But the system is new enough that dropping the price this year gives off an air of desperation. It would help investors, 3rd parties, but piss off early adopter gamers. 10) Halo 3 and GTA 4 for 360 will be bigger than anything in the USA by Nintendo or Sony
