Wow, the DSL price cut (which VGC didn't even account for) completely trumped the Wii price cut, which failed.
What the hell is with 360, though? It could stay up YOY all year!

Numbers are real, unable to comment further. And this is not a policy shift re: leaks, so don't get any ideas.

So both were undertracked? Right? Right? (Which is awesome, since I supported both titles!)

Man, thinking about it Nintendo deserves it, I hope not a single Wii is sold until they feel like localizing Xenoblade and The Last Story.

Good point by @NicolasVerge, the 507k Xbox figure included all of the "free" 360s given away under the Windows 7 PC promotion.

So yeah. Those free 360's are in the 507k figure, it's just nobody knows how many

Great move by Microsoft, honestly they combined a lot of neat tactics recently. I mean lets be honest, even if 75% of that signs up for Xboxlive, they are now contributing to microsoft's revenue/profit pool.

Can't be a lot based on that it was only for Best Buy and they did it for certain models of HP and Dell ($700).



Just want to play good games

On that laptop deal bullshit (from gaf):

"There were only 3 vendors where the purchases quailified for the promotion, Best Buy, Dell and HP. And it had to be a $700 and up purchase and even then Dell and HP limited it to only specific models. And you had to purchase it with a valid student ID. So this was a very small subset of the laptops purchased in the month."

I think the increase of sales is mostly due to MS's E3.

On GAF they're saying the 360 had a whole bunch of gift card deals all Month.

Explains the huge sales.


Folks over on Gaf are also forgetting the Wii and PS3 having whole bunch of deals aswell [ not directed towards you in anyway] 

Yes but only one was given away when you purchased a new Windows (~90% of OS marketshare) computer.
