4 weeks ending January 25th 2008. Total SW sales: ~ 20M Average SW weekly: 5M
47 weeks ending 28th November 2008 Total SW sales: 405M Average SW weekly: 8.6M
I checked, the difference is bigger for 2007.
Hardware: 4 weeks ending 25th January: 6.5M Average weekly: 1.63M
47 weeks ending 28th November 2008: 79.4M Average weekly: 1.68M
So for hardware, January is almost exactly as big as the rest of the year. No real difference. For software, January is a fair amount smaller than the rest of the year, simply because people have relatively lately been buying a lot of SW, and doesn't feel like buying a lot more.
I really hope I am misunderstanding what you say, because otherwise you have no point whatsoever. PS: When you have data, write what the data is for. Otherwise, it makes no sense to anyone but you, and we cannot disprove your data. |
Well sir, you are wrong. I said what my data was for. Of course SW is going to be higher in 2008 weekly compared to 2008 in Jan. 2008 had Wii Fit, SSBB, MGS4, Gears2, LBP, NG2, PES '09, Mario Kart, Call of Duty WaW, GT5:P, Resistance 2, more bundles and sales (AKA WII SPORTS), and more HW it was selling to.
Wii sold 790k in Jan. (Not including Japan)
Wii sold 16.56mil after that. (Not including Japan)
Minus those from your numbers and you will see Jan is higher in SW in Jan than the rest of the year (average) even with those gigantic releases.
(Jan - 1.4 average. Rest of the year 1.3)
