This decrease was due mainly to decreased revenue from Xbox 360 video games, decreased Xbox 360 consoles sold, and decreased revenue per console" |
Where do you get this information? Yes it is easy to calculate that the of the $256M revenue decrease $200M is simply selling 800,000 fewer 360s to retail. That leaves $56M more to be divided up by other things. We know that Windows Mobile marketshare dropped 20% the previous qtr compared to the previous year and no reason with the iPhone and Google phone onslaughts to think that Windows Mobile marketshare didnt continue that same decline if not worse during the gift giving season. Windows Mobile is also where a great deal of investment $ is going in the EDD division. Someday we will see Windows Mobile 7 and maybe it could reduce the Windows Mobile bleeding.
Its libraries that sell systems not a single game.
