I wonder what caused the Wii boost in the UK.


Temporary price cut.

Bank holiday was it?

I am glad that VGChartz is tracking more PC games.

Yes but only partially Bank Holiday Monday was yesterday. There were definitely some good deals to be had this Summer Bank Holiday.

Winner of the 2010 VGC Holiday sales prediction thread with an Average 1.6% accuracy rating. I am indeed awesome.

Kinect as seen by PS3 owners ...if you can pick at it   ...post it ... Did I mention the 360 was black and Shinny? Keeping Sigs obscure since 2007, Passed by the Sig police 5July10.

Wii had a nice bump of 8K for only 1 day...

360 holding up very well but the question is how long it will last since I think it will die out for the Holiday's...

P.S.3 is having normal sales I guess...

So you think that during the period that all consoles sell the majority of their yearly sales the 360 is going to inexorably lose all the momentum it currently has while at the same time releasing Reach, Fable, Black Op's and Kinect?

Yea umm I don't see sales analyst as a very viable career in your future.

Be interesting next week as will see the results from saturday,sunday and monday which was a bank holiday. Best buy had some crazy deals on like 20% off everything. I got me an elite for £79.99. The store clerk told me on sunday that the store sold more consoles in 48hrs then they had done in the 3 weeks. Should be some crazy numbers if that is reflected nationwide.

Also is that the first time the 360 has outsold PS3 in Middle East?

Thank you!   

It had a nice effect, particularly considering that it was still in August...
