DMC4 & SSBB came out this week last year

puh-lease

don't even try to flame PSWii

 

 So your saying that accounts for a 75% Wii and almost 60% PS3 drop? Sorry but that is just stupid, the thing that makes it seem even worse is that the drop did not effect the other console that had DMC4. The 360 game was 7th in the charts that week and it didnt drop.....

The drop is persistent with every other weeks numbers. I guess no games for all those weeks where to blame to right?

The PS3 sales as well as the Wii's has been down every week this year by around the same margin regardless of games.

But nice try at running damage control :)

 

You do realize those games are really big? SSBB even moreso. The fact that nothing significant came out WOULD make them drop that much. You clearly underestimate how much impact big games have.

Damage control? Ha, before you start calling that, maybe you should use more sense.

 

 Use a bit more sense?!

So let me get this straight right. For the past 5 weeks the sales year over year for pretty much all formats have been down and down a lot. In fact combined they are down over half a million on the same period last year. That drop is accountable to the fact there is no DMC4 or SSMBB this year? So the trend that has continued for months with vast % drops does not count this week because there were no SSMB or DMC4? What about all the other weeks then?

Sorry mate but that makes you sound slightly retarded or something. trends don't just stop because of a few games, especially not 60% or 75% drops. Think it is you that needs to use a bit more sense.
