Anybody have the YoY numbers?

Next week's 360 numbers might drop a bit as some people might be holding off getting a 360, if they decide to wait and get a Reach 360 bundle instead of a regular 360s.

Wii is up YOY as well

Rumors indicate that it is planning on following the first approach, sticking a new, motion-sensitive controller onto an existing console. Our perspective is that this is the worst of the three options.

-Clayton Christensen back in 2007 already knew Move would be a bad idea

Hmmm... I don't think so. People are preordering the Reach bundle for quite some time now so it already made its "negative" effect on HW sales.

HW sales will slightly drop but not because of people who are holding back now.

Wii at top like it should be, too bad about Other M though, hyper bomba.

Ditto, and gotta keep pushing the Metroid love.

Good for Wii, but everything else down WW WoW, quite a meh beginning of September overall. Let's just hope the sluggish week is due to the wait for later novelties...
