oh bollocks ... yes.  sorry. fixed.

No need to apologize. Keep up the great work!

Interesting that only the 360 shows YOY growth and that is comes in TWO (yes two) regions....  

Well, what did you expect? With Kinect and the slim it would be weird if it was down or just flat YOY. And the PS3 and the Wii didn't have anything that pushed sales over a longer time (Wii holiday bundles did boost sales really well, and Move and GT5 also did a good job, but that isn't really comparable to Kinect in terms of impact on sales).

thats not really my point....  I do not disagree with you.

But, I keep reading that the 360 success this year is down solely to the US numbers... false.  Its up everywhere except Japan... where it hardly even matters given the size of the numbers there.

I also keep reading how the PS3 is killing in the EMEAA... and yet its down, performing worse than in 2010.  The fall of the Wii is merely showing the PS3 in a better light. 

In other words... its all relatrive and the Wii performance is skewing some peoples view on things.

Ah ok, I got that wrong.

Well, it's not up heavily in EMEAA, but being just a bit up isn't a bad thing, especially considering that the Wii is heavily down and the PS3 is a bit down. But I agree, it's not solely because of the US numbers.

Also, that the Wii is skewing some peoples' view on things is something that already happened before the holiday season. Especially now as the Wii isn't 1st in any market currently some people forget to look at the whole situation a bit more in detail.
