Ive read all the comment and it seems most people are looking at that the wrong way. There were no special release this week or last week so lets calculate the sells per console.
There was 1.24 M SW sold, out of 23.42 M console. This is roughly 5.3%.
Now we have 1.44 M SW sold, out of 23.97M console. This is roughly 6%.
Another way to look at it is: 200k more HW sales out ouf 550k more console. It means that 36.4% of people getting the new console also purchase a new game. Like other people said theres also bundle/used game and maybe people waiting for their next weeks income before buying, renting games for now. My point is that 1.44M compare to 1.24M seems like nothing but in the end its only 550K more console out of 24 million.
