Why, thats just pitiful

It was 49k, he either typed the title wrong or was missinformed.

These are the figures from Media Create. So if he has typed it wrong, everybody has.

Not sure why we are using the MC number only considering the site we are on, but thats fine they are reliable enough for me. So no big deal.

Anyways back on topic: If you look one week further back you see this for MC #'s....

This shows pretty clearly that all consoles were up in sales 3 weeks ago and have gone down the last two weeks with the exception to a 10% correction for the PS3. This clearly goes deeper than just a Wii issue alone.
