360 sales are higher than expected, as are PS3. I only really expected PS3 to pull away in weekly sales after mgs

I'll stick with mine for now (made in December last year), allthough a couple of them will probably need adjustment or flat out scrapping...

The biggest surprise for me is PSP. Didn't think it would stay above DS for this long in Japan. Probably a 50-50 shot it outsells DS in Japan right now, with both in the 3.5 million-4.5 million range.

This is how year over year trends look through the first 17 weeks of 2007 vs. 2008 (J-A means January to April). Change/17 is weekly change worldwide.
