July - September sales are better than Febuary-May sales.

Because there are a big drop in Europe... the biggest GT region... selling less than 7k? No way... and GT sell better where VGC does't track.

Yeah, but...

So what do you REALLY think it'll be at next week then? 100,001 or something?

EDIT**

@Zoidberg- I'd be surprised if Wii isn't on top next week, and I expect some massive ad campaign for Zelda and after E3. Then we'll have some nice sales and PSP will no doubt return to last place in the weekly sales :/

I dont expect the Wii price cut to do as much for a couple of reason.

1. They cut the price of bundle, but instead of 2 games you now only get 1.

2. Wii saturation. No matter what part of the Wii decline is simply that it has hit a market that is pretty saturated with the product.

AS much is the key phrase there. Sure, I'm not saying it'll be increasing weekly by like 500% or something (like has happened with cuts before), but it's possible that it will be up anywhere from 50% to 100% mext week. 

Yes, the bundle is now only 1 game (though here in the UK both bundles are being sold) but the game in there is worth more than the other two games put together. And the Wii market isn't  saturated. They'll always be late adopters who bought a PS2 in '06 or something who are only willing to buy consoles below £100. The Wii is now there. So I expect sales to shoot up because it's the first console to this boundry.

July-September sales aren't really much better than February-May. Take last year, the hardware sales were 18.8 million from the start of February through May (17 weeks) and 13 million from the start of July through September (14 weeks).

In 2010, they were actually higher in February-May than in July-September

In 2009, they were 22 mllion for Februar through May (18 weeks), and 14.8 million for July through September (13 weeks).

I don't really see any evidence at all to point towards February through May being larger than July through September.

I'd say every month outside of January and Quarter 4 can be compared to each other quite safely, as they're all pretty much exactly as large as each other.

I expected 78K, lol bang!  is it reall out of stock? I mean £99.99 would flash in peopels eyes to say come here and buy me, but 200K sounds a tad too high, maybe no less than 160K.

No, you said 50k to me

And yes, it REALLY is out of stock. I saw two people ask at my local GS for one and they were both turned away due to no stock. It reminded me of good old '08 and '09.

After EMEAA and Japan came together 39K, I'de think Wii would be more than 11K in America's so I just up it a bit.

Well, I can predict where something will be after 2/3rds of the needed data have been released

I think above 160k seems reasonable. Depends on how much of an effect it had in the UK, because the rest of Europe only got the cut today. Americas was last week, so that's fine.

poor sales all round, massive drop for ps3 in japan. if all year things drop even at xmas time then i think thats the last legs for this gen. a shame really as its been a pleasure to own ps360wii
