I'll repost since it was an edit and I don't think anyone has read it.
I don't see why you guys think the 3ds is going to explode. It's doing so poorly...And wii holding at Q1-3? I just can't see that happening. And ps3 not the highest home selling console? Last time they had an early price drop and final fantasy in japan, they held level with their q1-3 performance (2009). And this week (10/22) is looking like on par with 2010 of the same week, where the year ended off with 6500.
But in 2010, there were literally 0 big ps3 releases in the last 10 weeks, and here there are 5. Holding level with this year would mean 7.2m. I'm at 6.1 and I feel like it's low.
Do you guys know something that I don't? You think a console that sold 7.2m during the year is going to simply lose 1.4m? What's weird is you guys all have the other consoles at level. xbox 6 -> 5.9, wii 5.8 -> 5.8, but ps3 with a recent price drop, 5-6 big games (including a GOTY contender exclusive), and it's missing 1.4m? How?
I mean last year xbox had some huge games come out, had a recent slim model and price drop, kinect unveiling, etc etc, and just barely stayed level.
Just noticed that this year, last week has no january days in it. My sales should be a lot higher for that week.
