total amercas for Jan is

now

Wii 428

360 463

looking at the preview those numbers dont seem right with the new ones for US only meaning Wii sold 10k for all of Jan outside Us ect.

So with the adjustments we see the difference between them and the preview is

Wii - was 417k, now 372k = down 45k

Ps3 - was 286k, now 277k = down 9k

360 - was 438k, now 403k = down 35k

Some big drops there for 360 and Wii.

If those numbers come true based on jan 10 NPD would see

PS3 UP 1k yoy

Wii DOWN 93k yoy

360 UP 71k

The Wii and 360 ones could be about right based on the trend prior to xmas and if MS got stock out.

But the PS3 numbers look overtracked to me based on the fact it was down year over year in december,november,october and september Meaning 4 months in a row (which VGC over-tracked PS3 for each of those months) it was down yoy. And in each of those cases by quite a lot. So i would be surprised to see PS3 actually be up year over year in US on the back of pretty much nothing in January. If it is indeed up year over year then i think thats pretty good going for the PS3.
