Well MS should have a good lineup for the holiday considering their output for the first 8 months of the year.

Not sure if it is entirely intentional or just how things have worked out for them, but they seem to have 90% of their focus on the holidays.

Well Phil did say "The battle is really September, October, November, and December."

Not sure of he said that just because they were losing every NPD at the time, or because it is what he actually believes. It is pretty misguided to discount the first eight months of the year. Sony showed in the US that being strong in that period is enough to balance out even heavy losses at the end of the year.
