Earthquake happened at like 3:30PM Friday on the 11th in Japan. So most of the sales for last week had already happened. Including a rather interesting new release that boosted sales particularly on day of release. That wont be the case going forward.

Yet all the other consoles dropped pretty dramatically
|
PS3 was only one with a signifigant release. Not to mention PS3 already YoY lower in Japan.
|
Like pretty much all consoles, what's your point?
|
PS3 was already trending lower, so my prediction of lower isnt just the Earthquake/Tsunami/partial meltdown. And for people saying well people are going to run out and repurchase all thier stuff, video game consoles will be much further down the list. People will want homes and cars first.
|
They won't buy empty homes though, will they?
|
I think that the video game console will be pretty far down the list of what they put in the home. For christ sakes this was no ordinary event and people think that a couple of months from now all the people will be rushing out and simply replacing video game consoles. If this was my country when I wasnt putting my own life back together I would be out helping my fellow countrymen not looking to play video games.
