Reach Will Cause HW Bump But Will it Be Bigger Than GT5s?..I Dont Think So!

Seece said:

GT5 launches in November, where consoles are seeing week on week rises rather than static sales.

So for that reason alone, the bump will be bigger for GT5 week, unfortunately for you, you won't be able to tell how much of that bump is actually tied to GT5

Sales in Japan mostly remain static (they could increase ever so marginally but nothing significant) until December and the increase in that region alone will be greater than the WOW increase that Reach will give. I would expect hardware to be up 150k-175k WOW in that region. So I would expect GT5 week to beat Reach week in every category, WOW absolute increase, WOW % increase, and absolute sales.

@Hyruken The reason 360 sold 311k that week last year was because Walmart had a $100 giftcard deal with the arcade model.
