I'm almost certain the 360s being overtracked. It's interesting that Kinect is attributed to the rise in sales of the 360. If Kinect caused the 360 to rise this week from last week, now is it possible that Kinect saw an almost 30000 unit sales drop from last week to this week. If people were buying 360s for Kinect, then why would Kinect see such a steep drop from last week. An increase in sales for the 360 should yeild an increase(or substaining) sales for Kinect seeing how it has a package in deal with 360s, but it doesn't.

Reduced stand-alone unit sales and increased Bundle sales?

Even if that happened, Kinect sales shouldn't have changed that much. If more of the Kinect sales are bundled then there's still to large of a gap between total unit sales and bundled sales.

The PSP is dead in NA.

360 is doing great with the PS3 and Wii doing okay.

DS is dropping fast as expected.

What is up with your predictions for the end of the year especially for ps3 and 360 you think the xbox will only sell 5 million in a year and the ps3 to only sell 8 million this year im sorry those are terrible sale predictions. 

I noticed a lot of wishful thinking going on in this thread.

I don't think the 360 is overtracked at all, it's very popular in America right now, and the only place where Kinect is having a huge impact. 

You know, considering most here are either 1) attacking Americans or 2) attacking the sites tracking, this was refreshing to see from someone that we KNOW isn't a 360 fan persay.  I have a newfound respect for you, sir.

OT:

"Sadness. This game deserves better.  Disappointment.  Lifetime sales likely less than 500,000 ..."

Why does 360 keep increasing randomly in Americas?

Probably certain shipments of RROD

EDIT: Well after doing some research slim can't get RROD...? Still wouldn't be shocked though.

Wii needs a price cut IMO.

OK, now I'm saying it. Therefore it IS bad. It needs something to entice sales, something to bring it back. The 360, I dunno, it's a monster. The wii is dropping back, it has no footholds in any areas now which it can count on. So Nintendo need to see this and do something about it, before it's too late...



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.
