For all intents and purposes 360 is nearing death in continental Europe. Nothing that MS has done has had any sort of major long-term affect on sales in that region. 360 was basically firing on all cylinders last year and going absolute gangbusters in the UK, but for the entirety of Europe it only topped PS3 5 times, and 3 of those times it was basically a tie.

I mean the fact that it's pulling numbers in Americas comparable to the Wii back in 2008 and still basically only tying the competition should show how sad the situation has gotten for the 360 in EMEAA.


Based on what? In this week EMEAA sales PS3 was 34K higher than XBOX and 24K higher than wii, of those, 20K were gained in middle-east/asia/africa alone. And let's not forget that PS3 had LBP2 last week while xbox and wii didn't have any game. XBOX in UK was 5K higher than PS3 so "360 is nearing death in continental Europe" because it selles 15K less on the week after some major release.  If that's the case PS3 passed away in America and UK long ago.
