But in that thread you said the Wii will be 50% down year-over-year during several weeks of Q2... which is nowhere near happening if I'm seeing the numbers right.

 

 

The Wii is down 68% YoY this week compared to the same week last year...

 

Correct, but that's cherry picking. That was GTA4 week, when Nintendo artificially dumped a huge amount of Wii stock to sell 741k (which is more they can even produce in a week):

The PS3 sold 272k that week, and the 360 sold 227k. So they'll be down by similar percentages, which doesn't mean anything given the context.
