Ok, now your making me think your blind.
A game that moves systems does so most notably when the game is released. The cold hard facts/numbers show a marginal increase when Halo 3 came out, and a drop which continued and moved the 360 step by step down the list. I own a 360, and I bought Halo 3, but I didnt buy the 360 for Halo 3. I doubt many people really did, otherwise the numbers would show it.
Take SMG this past week, that game is a system seller. You have 400,000+ copies of the game going out, weeks after it was released, and subsequently you have 740,000+ Wii's going out as well. Granted, this was the big holiday week, but SMG was selling well previously, the Wii was as well.
