I'm Calling It: The Console & Portable Peak For HW/SW Has Passed Already

[Reasonable]

Am I reading the numbers correct, or do they show Wii as the main culprit (due to the big YOY drop) with 360 showing a slight decline and PS3 actually still trending up for HW?

While overall the generation may be dipping given the staggered launch I'd be interested to know how each console is performing, too. For example I wouldn't expect the PS3 to peak until at least a year after the 360 does.

The Wii is the baffling one. It shouldn't be peaking this early if the 360 is only now showing a slight dip and PS3 is still actually working towards its peak.

It's going to be interesting to see how Natal and Move land, how GT5 and Reach work out and what Nintendo do to stimulate HW sales and SW.

Or maybe I'm reading the data wrong.
