The wii is down severily compared to last year..

 

and it's $199 this year compared to $249 last year, and it has a new color, AND it's bundled with wii sports resort..

*raises eyebrow*

2009: 8,945,173 

2010: 8,727,181

If -220,000 YoY is down "severily" (severely), then we have very different definitions of the word. Now, if you were talking about compared to 2008, then you might be on to something.

Nevermind it's actually up YTD in Japan and the US versus 2009.  People are making too many proclimations without actually looking at the numbers.
