I think it is pretty unlikely to see the console drop nearly 50% month over month. I could be wrong but that would make it the worst month it has ever had by quite some distance. The numbers year over year are down quite a bit but for the same month last year the wii did 172k. |
You're talking about a system that's a month away from it's replacement being announced. Most people aren't going to buy a Wii right now unless they absolutely have a need to because they'd rather wait to see what the Wii U will offer. It's one reason why you don't pre-announce a new systems. It's called the Osborne Effect, it kills sales.
