That reaction is because how you act in every ONE of these threads, someone says something that could ever so slightly be taken as a knock at the 360 and you take offense to it, it gets old quickly my man.

By return to normal I mean the sales start to fall back into line, after these pushes they have started to trend up more over time, but its not like these pushes have made the consoles reach the madhouse levels we saw earlier this gen, mainly I mean how the DS and Wii were sold out for months on end, DS less than Wii of course but it's also easier to manufacture them.

The pushes have done well by making the consoles pick up steam but it's fair to say they didn't start a wild fire where sales started to track significantly higher aka not normal next week will be a big week to see if 360 will top out 2008 even then 2008 wasn't that far ahead of 2009, so yeah, in line with trends, normal haha.

Also what does Wii market share have to do with a damn thing?  That's just trying to make numbers look better AKA spin, but that's just a fallacy, Wii numbers being lower has nothing at all to do with sales trends of other consoles, PS3 has nothing to do with 360 or Wii and 360 has nothing to do with PS3 or Wii.  All of these statements trying to put one console down to give another one a "better light" is just sorta lame, I mean you yourself was doing this (http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=3789382) oh yeah people could totally do that with the consoles as well like 77.7m v 46.4m! But it doesn't make statements like that not spin.

If you want to discuss 360 sales trends, do it, if you want to discuss PS3 sales trends, do it, but if all you want to do is spin it to make a console of choice look better, then it's wasting everyones time.

not doing that, I am just showing how your statement is factually incorrect.

no need for such a time consuming rant.

Maybe go and have a look at Seece's market share trends article to see how wrong you are.

Good one Kowen I never knew you had such a good sense of humor!  No thank you I'd rather just read sales trends from the source than read some silly thread, also I'd rather you make an arugument based on something like numbers rather than trying to pull this whole, you're wrong go to some internet thread to prove how wrong you are!  When I talk about sales trends over the past 2 years being generally the same, you try to pull some market share (for the year) stuff, when the highest I remember Wii being was 48% overall and now it's 46.7% overall, 1.3% that's not a lot of ground...

But here again you're trying to lead the debate into some "us v them" mentality and yet to provide one shred of evidence to say how the 360 sales are trending higher than they have the past two years, you can't because it isn't, so you're using a yearly marketshare debate as a scapegoat, I applaude you, you've wasted everyone's time.

Well your not including japan where the wii to 360 ratio is what 10-1?

Great analysis by you...not really though.

Wait... what?  We're supposed to pick and choose markets now?  These threads always go down in flames because of gross misuse of data...
