That's the reason why I predicted a first week quite low. It must be said that, for example, spread price drop dates just gave XB360 maybe a lower initial spike, but a longer lasting momentum. 2nd and 3rd week or even later could have higher sales, XB360 had two maxima in 2nd and 4th week after first region price drop, when other regions added their effect, indeed.
Adding different weeks for different regions together to obtain a "virtual 1st week" isn't totally correct in this case IMVHO, as if the game is very good, successive launches are helped by the first, otherwise they could be crippled by bad word-of-mouth ad.
