It just gained .3% in one "slow" week and just a few weeks after GTA IV and one week before Wii Fit; and a week that is generally described as Wii's being held back for the launch.

The results or non-results of GTA IV in console sales would indicate that both HD machines are near market saturation at current prices and no immediate price cut is anticipated.

I think that the Wii could reach 50% just running on the long Wii Fit legs.

 i think the .3 is more due to figure corrections than just the past weeks sales.

could be wroung though... 


You could also be perfectly right but the fact remains that GTA IV certainly did not cause any real hardware boost and Wii Fit is coming. It's a little like a John Wayne western when he chivalrously lets the other guy take the first swing and give it his best shot. And when he swings and hits nothing but air, then the Duke hauls back and cold cocks the S.O.B.

Sony and MS just took their very best shot and never laid a glove on Nintendo and now it's the big N's turn and I don't believe they're going to miss and this one is going to hurt, real bad.

So whether the .3% holds up this week or not, I'll stand by my prediction.
