It just doesnt work like this in Qtr1.  

For example. March 2010: In the same week Yakuza4 and God of War 3 are released.... Result: PS3 sales fall 1%.

 

You seem shocked, so you must be very confident of boosts.  Care to hang a number on them?

 


Funny you bring up March 2010.

March 2010 was one of the PS3's best months ever. During that month, the PS3 sold more than every other month every year except for Nove-Dec months and September 2009 which is when the Slim released. March 2010 numbers are tied with September 2011 numbers (which is when the PS3 had a price cut). During every other month, the PS3 sold less than what it sold March of 2010.

It really is impressive when you think about it.

December months > > > November months > > > September 2009 > > > September 2011 = March 2010 > > > > > every other month.

Why do you think March 2010 sales for the PS3 were so impressive? Battlefield: Bad Company 2?
