Wow Wii is Waaaaay down Yoy

 

Yea and that's probably an under statement.  I mean Wii had Wii Fit last year but still with AC you would have hoped some of the damage from the strong yen would have been alleviated.  Wii is just getting hit very hard by this along with the PSP.  DS and PS3 getting hit hard as well but nothing compared to PSP and especially Wii.  360 seems unphased but that's because it's been hit harder haha.

 

Seriously, im not trying to hate, This is bad for Japan, I want the Industry to grow, not shrink

Yea I'm not trying to hate either just how it is.  Market for hardware is bad for everyone now.  Even if people see good things in 360 up, it's still not recovering what is being lost by the top 3: DS, Wii, and PSP.  Meaning it will either start to go down as well because it's not lead brand or will simply just stay stale. 

But something has to be done.  I'm hoping that MH3, FF13, and DQ9 will accomplish something and move the market along but they are still awhile off.
