360 is doing well based on it's excellent price point and value proposition but it still lacks an major compelling titles for the rest of the year. Some AAA titles yes, but nothing attention grabbing.

Wii should do fine with WSR and NSMBWii. I doubt WiiFit Plus will boost system sales. MH3 will also be a huge factor in Jpn. It'll have a better 2nd half this year than last for sure.

Sony is in real trouble. Terrible price point and no announced major titles for this year. MAG and Uncharted 2 simply won't do. Without GoW3, GT5 or FFXIII there's no compelling reason to get a PS3 over a 360 this year. Without the games even a price cut can't help much. I'm starting to think they might as well wait until 2010 to drop the price, a full $100 right before the big 3 hit. That would get them flying off the shelves.


Gamer, what type of effect do you think FFCC: The Cyrstal Bearers will have on the Wii? One thing is for certain, Nintendo isn't going into this 4Q unprepared, with 3rd parties bring in more assistance then before...

Usual sales bump for a week or two and decent software sales but nothing major.  It's not the main series FF but if the games proves really good it might give the Wii a small prolonged sales increase of 1-2k.  DQX when it comes out, would be much more significant.
