Market leaders tend to peak in their third year.

Why would it taper off during the holiday season, of all times?

Same goes for ps3 and 360, but why mention them?

Anyhow, the wii will dominate I even have one.

 Wow, that was the shortest 45 day ban I've ever seen. Welcome back.

Yeah I mean how dare he not mention the 13% increase for PS3 and the 19% increase for the 360!! I mean those are totally as interesting as the 251% percent increase the Wii got.

/sarcasm

 

I know what you were getting at but really...how are the other two even comparable?

edit: PS - OK...I suppose asking a question was kinda silly since you can't respond =p

 

edit2: interesting note: if you multiply the PS3 increase by the 360 increase its still less than the Wii increase ..thats insanity (ie 13x19=247)

Did any human being actually believe last weeks low Wii american sales were do to anything but supply constraint. I mean, the evidence is on Ebay. Who said this, so I can laugh at then and write their name down for future embarassment.

Quoteworthy if it actually happened.



I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

 I'm sure you can find a few in this thread.

Anyways, yeah, I was expecting those sales to kick back up around the end of the month.  I'll have to start checking my local stores more regularly now to see if I can actually find one at long last.

Wii sales are at that point where supply not demand will dictate WW sales on an average week
