^It's not perfect, but it shows the way that momentum is going. The PS3's numbers look good because it's had a boost in momentum this year, but it's really about how the numbers change over time. Even if YoY numbers are still high, you can see a decline ahead of time if they are continually getting lower.

Interesting.

I'm guessing you have to calculate that yourself, right?  I've never seen a function like that on this website.

I did graphs of them for Wii in 2008 and 2009. I haven't done a graph of more recent numbers, but I observe them in the weekly threads.

This is what I mean:

 

In 2008 you could already see a lull for most of the latter half of the year (which was a software drought), but because Wii was still up YoY every week, it wasn't noticed. The software at the holiday season made Wii up more again but only for a short period, and the 2009 graph is of course worse..
