How the hardware sale of First 4 months of 2008 has changed your estimates.

The biggest surprise for me is PSP. Didn't think it would stay above DS for this long in Japan. Probably a 50-50 shot it outsells DS in Japan right now, with both in the 3.5 million-4.5 million range.

 

This is how year over year trends look through the first 17 weeks of 2007 vs. 2008 (J-A means January to April). Change/17 is weekly change worldwide.
