@BKK2: Maybe sales from 2007 don't provide a good picture, at least 1 data point isn't enough to see a trend. I do know Wii was completely supply constrained and PS3's sales kept falling in the months afterwards after fulfilling the demand from launch. So that only leaves 360 as a possible indication of decreasing sales from February to March, but it might just as well be caused by game releases and other announcements. |
March sales have been down from February sales for the previous 5 years according to NPD. February is generally a bigger month for HW sales than March.
