| kowenicki said: 30% down for the wii is significant. PS3 down is also significant - really didnt expect that until September. The 360 is now stealing sales from both of them imo. Wii has a very interesting christmas approcahing... I think I may have overpredicted for them for the holidays. Adjustments for 360 and PS3 too... nice. |
I wouldn't say the Xbox 360S is stealing sales. I would say the Xbox 360 is taking back sales which were stolen due to fears of reliability / wifi / noise / perception issues if at all. I don't think its convincing people who would have only considered getting a PS3/Wii before to get an Xbox 360.
But as for everything else, I agree. What is of interest to me is whether or not the slump in sales is also a reflection of saturation in the market place. The gaming market has gotten older and the people can obviously afford more expensive consoles. If the revision had launched last year, would the Xbox 360 be down similarly without the short term sales boost its getting?
Tease.
