360 had 11.7 million consoles out the week of September 29th 2007, it sold 4.5 million units of SW that week, over 1.5 million more than what the Wii sold on April 12th 2008, and yet having less than half the install base.

  I think you misread Trestres, Wii had 12.1 million install base, 360 had 11.7 million install base, so their install bases were rather equal and yeah 360 sold more software and more hardware that week because of Halo 3, but like i've been pointint out, Halo 3 didn't generate momentum, its very frontloaded, so when its sales dropped off so did the 360's hardware and software sales

No I didn't misread anything. I was comparing the Halo launch week to the Mario Kart launch week you brought up. Wii's install base was double the 360 one comparing those 2 weeks, and yet the 360 outsold it in SW by more than 1.5 million units.
