Piss poor sales all round.

YOY:

Wii - down 13% (price cut is wearing off fast)

PS3 - down 41% (over 50% down soon I reckon)

360 - down 38%  (will be down even more Massively soon, new model didnt launch until late July here)

3DS - awful  (3DS and DS combined down over 50%)

PSP - down 55%

PS2 - down 75% and vanishing

 

Everyone is perfomring poorly now in this region

TOTAL Hardware DOWN 48%

TOTAL Software DOWN 33%

Does anyone seriously believe we wont see new consoles announced next year?  and price cuts must be just around the corner.

YoY numbers are bad indeed, but both MS and Sony have good reasons to not rush next gen launches. 2012 announcements and 2013 launches aren't unlikely, but MS and Sony will wait to see price cuts effects and they'll watch what happens to Ninty after its early launches too before deciding.

 

PS: thanks for the YoY table and LOL, you were quick as usual this time!
