TheBigFatJ said: All he's really saying is that the Wii is currently selling over 53% of all consoles and if this continues, it would eventually reach about 53% total sales. Let's look at the numbers during the 'dead' part of the year while Wii production is still very high -- the Wii could very easily be getting 60% of the total sales world wide in February, for example, if Nintendo lets the supply out. To reach 50%, the Wii literally needs to outsell the 360 and PS3 combined by 2.78 million. 50% = Wii - (Xbox 360 + PS3) +2.78 |
Although you are right about this not being the most appropriate period to evaluate trends, current numbers are so crazy that this Xmas sales weight on the total will be even heavier than normal, so that results achieved at the end of this year will take longer than in the past to be shifted by subsequent sales trends.
