Wow, big hit for all 3 :| Lets hope for the best. TBH the PS3 and 360 are the only 2 consoles that could be saved by a pricecut ( save is a strong word, I know) , but it will have absolutely no real effect on the Wii IMO. The PS3 has the most to gain, and Sony should finally release a 200$ PS3 model, maybe a core sub 200$ model could do miracles. The 360 needs to address their bundle price. They are way to high and cutting 50$ for good from every system, would make miracles happen. Also, lower the Kinect price. Its non-holiday period now, if they want the Kinect to remain relevant outside q4, they need a good amount of quality games and a pricedrop

But all in all, except the new handhelds, we are looking forward to one boooring q1 saleswise :|

Kinect line up this year is pretty extensive.

Star Wars, Steel Battalion, Project Dragoon (I guess that´s the name?), RySe (Better With Kinect), Fable : The Journey (Kinect ONLY), Codename D, New Dance Central, Kinect Sports and whatever they want to throw more.

Kinect should have a beast year with all that software and will help 360 selling but not as much as it used before.

If they cut the price of 360 to 129.99$, now that would help ALOT!

To Pezus:

But this morning it showed to me your posts were removed. I don't know why?

Glad we're not adjusting. I'm glad Pachter is now questioning things as well, it's too odd for the industry to be down suddenly like this. We've been in a recession for years now and the industry showed no signs of it, why would it suddenly dip so harshly?

I foresee another unusually high february.

Again, why so sudden? It'd be a slow decline not a massive drop off.

Be nice if Nintendo clarified. NPD have Wii at below 39m even after Jan. Nintendo stated Wii hit 39m in Dec ...

Those expecting a 360 price cut, I think they'll wait for around when WiiU launches to steal thunder.

So if NPD is right we could be in for a very slow year ..

Weird NPD numbers... so the market in US is dropping fast.

Europe is holding good yet.

X360 - 130k over?
3DS - 200k over?
PS3 - 110k over?
Wii - 90k over?
DS - 30k over?

Been saying that for Months, since it was obvious MS wouldn't cut in 2011. Hope I'm right on it, would make for a very interesting Holiday season, at least in the US.

According to vgchartz. They have been way off in the last few months.
