of course... PS3 will look this way until late August, after which it will be around 20 to 30% down each week.

That's highly doubtful, GT5 and Move will off set the Slim launch, it'll likely sell about even.



I think PS3 will get a nice boost from games they will announce during E3. I don't believe that accessories such a Move will push sales. I know that some people count on this (not necessarily for PS3) but for a hardcore console Its hardcore games that matter.



Lookin' good!

360 and Wii are basicly flat.

Excellent for the 360.

Not so good for the Wii really. Pricecut, NSMB Wii, Wii Sports Resort and Wii Fit Plus. Should be way up really. Black Wii could help...

PS3, even excellenter

I don't think he is.

I DO think he is saying it wont boost sales as high as the pricecut and "Slim" did.

And he is right. They will need more than just GT5 if they want to match last years sales.



                            

Wii needs games, and people need to realize that Wii games are what they need. For example why Japan people isn't preordering SMG2, Xenoblade while there are still DQX preorders without a date?
Xbox360 doesn't look good but it has 5 years so no problem. PS3 healthly up, but near 100k sales are not that great at all...to be honest nothing looks good now that neither the DS is over 300k...we're entering into the most boring period of the year. Luckily E3 is arriving, just in time to warm us!



CURRENTLY PLAYING: Xenoblade (Wii), Super mario 3D land (3DS), Guild Wars (PC)

they will hve ff versus xiii whch will be the best game of all time, LBP2 & Motion will do big on ps3. its possble



No game on PS3 will be able to boost the sales at 300+k like last year in September or October: in these two months PS3 will be down YoY. It would be a smart move IMO launching these games in November or Dicember, that would put the PS3 in the position of selling more this holiday than last one.
