PSN issues didn't happen till the end of the month so I wouldn't really count that as a factore. May will probably be a better indicator.

Just want to play good games

What do you reckon?

have no clue, but I think 3ds might be a bit overtracked here.

it was over tracked with the first numbers in EMEAA, and also over tracked NPD march, I expect the same again.

i believe PSN was down for nearly half of april

seeing that theres no real big impact for april i doubt May will be much different for all we know half of May could have PSN online, there are still other things you can do with a PS3 besides online gaming some of PS3s best games have no online or not used as much like heavy rain, infamous, god of war, MGS4, Uncharted series

last may ps3 was at 150k so i believe it will still be up YOY
