I'm excited to see the next set of numbers in Japan.

Of course the number will drop, but I'm hoping it stays over 10k and then never go back below 8k for the rest of the year.

 

I laughed.

 

Microsoft do seem to have built some momentum in Japan with some shops selling out of 360's this week as well:

I was expecting a pretty large drop in 360 numbers but the indications are that it won't be so bad, plus the sell out status is probably creating a bit of a buzz.  Not long now for this week's Japan numbers to be posted; I don't think you'll be laughing when you see them.

I forgot that when it sells ~10k for one week that means it will do it for the rest of the year. Thanks for the reminder.

 

You bolded the part of gebx's post where he stated that he hoped the 360 would sell over 10k this week, so it's natural to assume you were laughing about that as well.  

Just to be clear, the 360 sold 30K for the week it was restocked in Japan and even then some suppliers did not have sufficient stock to meet demand.  Also, gebx said that he hoped it wouldn't go back below 8k, not 10k, for the rest of the year. Why are you trying to move the goal posts? Afraid that the 360 may settle around the 8k in Japan?
