So Guitar Hero III selling so well is why? And Wii Fit will flop heavily? We actually might have overtracked it by 1.6M!

And think of what it could have been! Today only miserably 75% of America are gamers! A shame!

You're totally missing the point.   The point is that if America were in a boom economy, the industry numbers would be even bigger.  Guitar Hero is NOT a middle-of-the-pack title.  The post SAID that the top endwell known stuff will sell no  matter what.  It's the Blacksite:Area 51 and the Frontlines and that stuff that's average full price stuff that's getting passed on, as well as people being less inclined to spring for the most expensive consoles at the numbers that might have been.

 Once you take some economics and understand the big picture beyond what mom gives you for allowance, you'll understand what I am saying.

And 75% of America games because they count my 64-year old mother playing bridge on pogo.com as being a gamer.
