Look at how many PS3s/360s sell one week, then see how much they increase next week when the games are released? There are a whole bunch of reasons why a console may sell more the week of the release, you cannot put that down to a new game out alone. What if a console sold less the week those games are released? You'd count backwards? I think it is an unrealistic question if you want an honest answer. |
Um... it's pretty simple... If you see a sudden spike of a game and HW sales in one week over another, you can easily assume that the software was a HW pusher... Infinite Undiscovery, and Tales of Vesperia HAS PROVEN to push X360 in Japan... The fact that LBP will be BUNDLED will undoubtly sell more PS3 than Fable 2 will do for the X360. The fact that X360 also selled well on the week that Vesperia was out was also because Japan had a SPECIAL EDITION VESPERIA X360 Bundle. Also, another exmpale would be the MGS4 PS3 bundle. It pushed high PS3 sells.
