I maintain that I'll be higher up when adjustments come in and 360 doesn't have a ridiculous 30% boost for no reason.
30% boost for a sequel, when halo and cod are right around the corner....just doesn't make sense.

last year the Wii had a 50% boost in week 1 for no reason. (unless there was some kind of deal)

Actually looking again the boost in EMEAA was 96%... was there a price cut then?

Week 1 2010 had the Red Mario Wii bundle.

I think it's not unreasonable that a 2.2 million opening week for a game moves some extra hardware. Add that to some baseline of +15/20% for the holiday effect and you may as well have a strange 35% boost. Call of Duty is still twice as big but boost hardware year after year. In 2009 and 2010 Week 3 Call of Duty Week was bigger than Week 4 for the HD consoles.

Hmm, I had that info in the 2010 thread, which I have bookmarked.... not sure why I didn't check it :-/
