Vita slightly down again but stabilising, we can assume we have found it's baseline around the 15k mark.

Surprising to see PS3 continuing to slide however. Would not be surprised to see a few weeks under the 10k barrier soon. And Wii U down again, sad times.

Nice Tomadotchi debut, 3DS boost is reasonable. I expect it to be maintained through Golden Week. And I really don't buy this Vita supply thing. There may be some issue, but not enough to increase sales dramatically. I think 15k is where it will stay; 50% or so higher than pre-price cut.

Skyward Sword equals SS?

 

When is golden Week? I always thought it was during our Christmas. If not, then what do Japanese celebrate during our Christmas?

 

I guess the PS3 has reached saturation point in Japan? Because big games are coming out each week it seems, but sales are still declining.

No, Soul Sacrifice.

And Golden Week is basically a cluster of Japanese holidays which occurs around this time each year. It's a pretty big thing.

And I guess they celebrate New Year in Japan...
