| Soriku said: Why is the PSP down? Otherwise I wonder how the Wii/PS3 sales will go. The RPGs that got released for PS3 didn't provide an encouraging boost and the Wii's lineup is barren for a while. |
Both PS3 and Wii will be down, but PS3 has some games that could help provide a spike or a short term boost in the upcoming months, plus the 250GB model is coming out, that might boost consoles a bit. Although the console is sliding down, already 10k down from previous week according to MC.
Wii has well, nothing else coming out that could help reinvigorate sales. It will all fall on NSMBWii's hands, which is inevitably sliding down as time goes by. Wii sales dropped 8k this week from 42k last week compared to th 34k this week. The dry period goes as far as May, there are no notable releases until then. I think Nintendo will wait until the FY ends to release any games on their own, while 3rd parties, well, we already know what they have to offer until June and that's about nothing.
