Well, you guys have a point about holiday spikes and I have no doubt that it will affect sales thereafter but how much of this will be reflected in 2007 is yet to be seen. All console sales are decreasing on the average regardless of recent or occasional increases.
- Wii sales have not gone up but slightly decreased. It was estimated to be 16 mil at current rate before but this decreased to less than 15.
- PS3 sales have shrunk drastically in all territories from estimates in excess of 7 mil to below 5 mil at current rates. The recent developments made over 5 million probable though.
- 360 sales have long been detoriating, now estimated below 12 at current rates.
All this given are quite pessimistic scenarios though. This is why I use an interval for a probable regain of momentum in sales for about 1-1,5 million more for each console. The holiday spikes WILL affect the sales but this will be more apparent in 2008. The affect in 2007 will be quite moderate. We can be looking at a very different picture after June 30th of 2008.
