On top 10 SW; Vegas 10-15% below what I expected on both consoles, a solid second week for MoH and other than that it's Wii Wii Wii all the way to the bank.
This is tough to adjust to but I won't start critiquing the methodology. If Brett and Co. say 400k more PS3s sold in Can. and 1.5m more in EMEAA then that's what I'll use as a basis for discussion. The ubiquitous ship vs sold controversy is officially dealt with. So much for my theory that EMEAA would be noticeably weaker this holiday. I made a couple comments on channel stuffing as well, just offering possible explanations to defend the site. I had no idea they would make the biggest adjustment I've seen so far. I stand corrected.
So PS3 is leading 360 by 59k this week because of Move, gains in EU and especially M-E and A. Nice nos. for sure but predictions it will catch 360 in 2011 are still waayy premature.
I really hope the motion control trend doesn't steal most of the development dollars on the HD platforms now. Hopefully they'll remember the core of their userbase when the frenzy dies down.
