Also, this week:

Wii from 63,944- 63,789. Looks like its stabilised now...

PS3 from 86,913-83,490. IT'S STILL FALLING! IT IS TEH DOOMEZD!!!

 

You see? This is how stupid this thread is. Singling out one poor week of sales is stupid, because there could be reasons for this decrease. It's not sensible. Will I go out now and make a 'PS3 is DOOMED' thread? No, of course not. Because it's not the Wii...

 

If we talk about the whole year, then the Wii will likely extend its lead by a couple million, like last year, depending on price cuts etc.

But singling out the Wii's slow start from its amazing holidays and over 85million previous sales is idiotic, and is beginning to annoy me and many other people on this site

/rant

Wii 18,345,329 (-15%) 83,659,784
PS3 14,443,529 ( 11%) 46,345,856
X360 13,606,638 ( 34%) 50,388,641
Wii 182,613,195 ( 2%) 614,324,080 (7.34)
X360 141,034,044 ( 24%) 458,452,990 (9.10)
PS3 126,988,806 ( 38%) 330,894,142 (7.14)

Both the Xbox 360 and PS3 are up YOY for both hardware and software whereas Nintendo are flat on software and down on hardware. So you can definately say that if grace = dominance, then Nintendo surely is falling from it or has already fallen from it in the console market. From a revenue perspective, its possible that roughly speaking Sony = Microsoft = Nintendo and for 2011 they're probably going to fall behind.

I know, that's my point. It isn't this week compared to last week though is it? Therefore extrapolating that data MUST mean it's doomed, instead of waiting for more data to get a better view of things in the long-term

That's how stupid these threads and others are IMO. Not enough info at the moment to make an accurate judgement on the 'doom rating'...



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.
