Well in about 4 weeks, GT4 begins to enter it's first holiday season in EMEAA, and although sales remain relatively flat for the next 6 months of GT4's sales, I don't think this will be the case for GT5.

More likely 20 weeks.

In Week 21 GT4 sold 25k and after that until Week 40 it down to 15k... the first holiday boost is Week Ending 03rd Dec 2005 (Week 40) when it sold 25k again.

The holiday boost in EMEAA for GT4 was low... 25k (Week 41), 40k (Week 42), 60k (Week 43) and go back to 40k (Week 44)... Week 45 (24k) was already January.

Just EMEAA data... the boost in Americas stared before (November middle).

We should also consider two things in favour of GT5 sales: first, GT5 hasn't had its first Golden Week in Japan yet, second, after MS attacked GT5 during its launch heavily bundling F3, Sony could retaliate heavily bundling GT5 just when F4 launches.
