So we'll only be able to see the effects of the price cut in summer months? Lol, what a way to make sure no one remembers this thread by then.

Holiday sales don't start just yet. It's been said, even by the big honchos on this site, that those start in a week or two, three. So you're just trying to escape the inevitable answer that both price cuts worked, by dodging and spinning yourself. I guess the MS price cut might still be a success, depending on whether it sells good on 14th of may 2011. That's evidently the day that this price cut actually starts working..

And stop focussing on the NPD, unless you only want US sales. US =/= World (luckily)

 

 

OK then, if thats what you want then Im fine with that. Im already let this topic go and say few months later "I told you so" when that time comes. But since you insist I'll let you and others here and make a monthly comparison. I still win though, nothing can win the OCT-Dec. 2008 and Jan.-Mar. 2009 NPD

 

BTW 2009 was the start of recession and the Wii still selling that much till March

That was NOT your point. Your point was trying to state that both price cuts failed because of some reason no one is able to see. Yet, now you want to "prove" that they have failed because they couldn't beat the numbers from the year before (which was the top year for consoles like the Wii). That's just ludicrous. If Man Utd doesn't score more than 100 goals, they will have failed, even though they might still win the league? It doesn't work like that. Sales have increased tremendously for the PS3 right now, and that's the aim of the price cut. Because, with your "logic", the 360 is bound to be this year's biggest failure.
