Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

So 47k+ people don't follow the Internet and aren't aware of next price drop *OR* they are all price-matching the difference in two weeks. I think people are just idiots, and MS is banking on that.



It's just that simple.

Low numbers for the 360...people waiting for that price drop?

 

Unless the Arcade becomes abnormally popular in a few weeks, I can't see the price drop doing much more than the price drop on the Pro did a few weeks ago.  The Pro is usually Microsoft's best selling SKU, followed by the Elite, if I recall correctly.



Also, school is starting in many places so one would expect a sales dip barring any major events, like new models, price cuts, games, etc.



Really a differneces from us and europe.
Ds double in europe.
Wii almost double in europe.
Ps3 has a good week with a boost from 80 gig
360 lower than europe, guess everyone waits for price cut
Psp selling steady
