PS3 will get most of the GTA boost in Europe, and part of it in America.
However, we're unlikely to see the result of a Wii production boost before GTA launches. And we're unlikely to see Wii Fit or Mario Kart release anywhere else before GTA launches.
Will GTA boost 360 to 20 million straight away? No. It will boost the system by some 500K-700K over 6 weeks.
And by the end of June, we'll see the results of a Wii production boost and Wii Fit in America and Europe, which will create a bigger, more sustained boost than GTA will.
Still, the raw sales needed for 360 is so much less I'm still tempted to go that way. It will certainly be closer than Microsoft or Nintendo could have imagined 8 months ago.
"[Our former customers] are unable to find software which they WANT to play."
"The way to solve this problem lies in how to communicate what kind of games [they CAN play]."
