Well, same time last year it kept declining until end of September, when Nintendo cut the price. They COULD do another legacy deal type thing in some fashion, or a permanent price cut. If they don't .. Wii "dominating " xmas talk is just bullshit, they're likely to win, but dominate? I don't think so. |
Besides anticipation for christmas there is nothing to bump hardware sales in the short-term so this is probably going to repeat this year.
I really wouldn't try to predict christmas sales for the Wii, though 
There really weren't any hardware moving or million selling games with a 2010 release date so far besides a Mario Galaxy sequel (which, considering its predeccessor and the way more popular Mario Bros. really didn't have a chance to push many consoles). There are 8 games on the so far that have passed 1 million units in 2010 and only Super Maro Galaxy was released this year.
Starting October the Wii gets those million sellers at a weekly rate, though. It's really weird Like every publisher including Nintendo themselves moved all of their games back to the October-December period instead of releasing something during summer as well (which is probably what they did, hehe...)
