I think a few people deliberately avoid looking at the Wii HW/SW numbers... At one point I thought the whole thing (console wars) might turn into an HD vs SD affair, but clearly the diehard PS3/360 fans were unable to settle their differences enough to try for HD victory over SD sales type arguements. |
Well, the top 6 software is all Wii/DS and did over a half million units, and only 2 of those are "newer" titles, whereas the next 3 PS360 titles account for around 150,000. Not even close.
It makes me wonder about the uptake of HDTV's and whether it's quite where the HD guys would have you believe. I mean, if you read the "3D will push X console sales through the roof!" threads, you would think that every household already has 2 HDTV's and at least one that's 3D ready. I think a lot more people than we like to admit are still hangin' with their SDTV's and are fairly satisfied.
Also, up until this week I have to admit I ignored the blue colored sales, but I think I'll keep a watch on them. It makes worrying about second place seem like who gets the slightly less smelly turd, to be honest.
