One week doesn't make a trend... They've been down YoY for almost the whole year, and were even so for Black Friday...

I didn't say it made a trend, I said the trend is been reversed, its not falling anymore

For the last week...

even before it wasn't falling, it had stabilized, I don;t think you realize what decline and trend mean, to have a trend of decline it has to be falling continuously, if it stops falling or goes up, then its not a decline or a trend

Increasing during a year does not mean the decline has stopped. There are seasonal trends, after all. The only way to determine it is to look at YoY and YoY percentages across the year. Up until last week, the Wii has been doing very poorly by the former in spite of the price cut, and only marginally better by the latter.

Except it was even before the holidays, since the price cut, its been up over what it was, over the summer we had seen Wii decline to a little less than 200K per week, since the cut its been well above that, even before the holidays started, so like I said the trend was reversed, and like I said the sales over the holidays continue to support the idea that its not in decline, you can say its stabilized at a lower level, but that's not decline, nor is it a trend of decline.
