I didn't expect the Xbox 360 to get this close to any of the Wiis recent end of year totals. It shows what a good job Microsoft did this year by increasing the year on year totals by over 50% on the fourth holiday season and delivering a relevant library that people enjoy. It will be interesting to see if they can repeat the Y.O.Y. increase from 2008 to 2009 that they did this year and increase sales for a 5th holiday season in a row.
The Xbox 360 may not even fall below 175k for any week in 2009, since Others produces such consistant numbers all year round and they are doing so well there. Hmm, maybe I should make it my prediction? Im sick of long ass predictions that take up all my signature.
Tease.
