well that's strange as i fill like i've done this recently.

Wii 3DS struggling 



Nothing really stands out to me this week. Just boring sales.



PS2 .. go you good thing ! and to think its on the rise and not just 3DS dropping back



Research shows Video games  help make you smarter, so why am I an idiot

With sales like this for the ps2, main shops like tescos asda, game/station should just bring them back onto the shelves to be sold as new, it would sell so much more

At least they learnt quicker than Sony did...

Nintendo was arrogant long before Sony was. Their first taste came in the 90s (with the N64) and now  again with the 3DS. In truth, all 3 companies have been arrogant (this gen in particular). It's just that Microsoft has never had as much to lose as Sony or Nintendo.

It's the cycle of arrogance. Perhaps next gen will be MS' turn.

But you have to admit that Sony's arrogance at the beginning of this gen was quite disastrous. PS3 is the only home console I own, so it's not like I'm hating on it or anything. If anything, I wish they had done better.

Week actually a little bit up WoW overall (+1% HW and SW), but the most noticeable thing is that 3DS is dead last, beaten by every portable and home console, even by PS2, and this BEFORE Ninty actually announced a price cut is coming very soon. DS must have had good HW offers, as it had the best WoW growth despite no noteworthy launches and SW sales actually down.

I'm not sure whether to feel slightly proud or devastated at the fact that PS2 > 3DS
