Nice software list.

Some good current generation home console hardware sales;

Xbox 360 sees sales double any previous non-holiday quarter.
Wii sales are up 43% on Q1 2008, although it's possible Wii was supply constrained in Q1 2008.
PS3 sales remain static over Q1 2008 compared to being down 35% in France, however the drop in France is through May, so we could see PS3 down in Switzerland through Q2.

NDS is down 29% over Q1 2008, but DSi released at the beginning of Q2 so we could see it up YTD next quarter.
PSP down 35%, with PSP Go not releasing until Q4 it may struggle to improve on last year, some strong software releases may help it though.

PS2 sees it's lowest quarter since records began in Q1 2007, and probably ever, but with a price cut at the beginning of Q2 it has a chance to improve next quarter.

PC gaming software: 167M?
Console gaming software: 511M?
Handheld gaming software: 231M?

Is that right, I can't translate French.



Tease.

167'005 = 167k etc. It would be hard to sell a billion games in Switzerland in one quarter ;) Left side is units, right side is value in Swiss Francs.
