I'm curious, how big was the tax increase? Sales definately dropped after that, must have been pretty steep.

If the PS4 doesn't find a baseline soon, then that's really bad.

That's just overly dramatic for effect. It's inevitable that the PS4 will find a baseline soon, because it's running out of room to go any lower.

Well, until X1 release in Japan. It can steal some extra steam from PS4!

The PS4 on the same level at Wii U

Have the stock problems ended, or that never existed?

The problem is that consumers are not aware that the PS4 is a new console.

PS4 a new console? i thought it was an add on for the Vita.
