Japanese School Holidays are over, right? Sales always drop in Japan when school starts.
I remember back in autumn 2008 2007, actually! when the original DS was still sold out and moved up to 300k units in Japan in a single week - it suddenly dropped, over the course of a couple weeks, to below 80k units and stayed there for the rest of the year. It was like a bubble had burst or something.
Sales usually stay pretty depressing until late November in Japan, when the holiday rush starts to set in. We're in for some rather boring 2 months now.
