PSP is ballin' indeed.

Shame about Wii though, even Wii Music (unexpectedly) failled to spark Wii HW sales.

Relatively nice X360 sales - perhaps it will reach 1m LTD by the end of this financial year?

Yes PSP is doing quite good.  Of course I can't help but think it could have sustained better after PSP 3000 but still not bad. 

Well it was doubtful that Wii Music would really stimulate sales for the Wii... well at least if you understood the curious case of Wii Music which unfortunately little people here aside from me did.  However YoY, Wii ain't doing that bad considering this time last year it sold 31k so at least its not drastically worse.  Of course 360 YoY, puts to shame that decrease with its large increase.

As for 360 its doubtful it'll hit 1 million by the end of the year.  Currently at 770,000 and let's say during the next 10 weeks, in 7 of those weeks it sales an average of 15k.  That equals 105k and in the 3 weeks it sales 45k.  That's another 135k.  Total of 150k would put it at 920,000 which falls short of the 1 million number.  Now I put those drastic numbers in there simply so anyone wouldn't question because we know the 360 won't have 3 weeks of 45k or 3 that would average out to that or those 7 weeks to average out to 15k a week but it's mean to be extreme to show that 1 million is highly improbable simply by seeing those as improbable themselves.

However 360 should be able to go over 1 million in Japan... if everything stays up which really who knows whne we hit 2009, by about April to May of 2009.

 

 

Well, I was specifically talking about the financial year. With Star Ocean 4 launching in March (or was it February?), I think x360's got a real chance of reaching 1m by the end of March.

Definitely probable and would go along with my prediction which says around April to May, considering end of March is beginning of April haha.

I hope the PS3 picks up some awesome sales next week...



4 ≈ One

60k, things are close between the PS3/360. They are pretty much tracking equally and I wouldn't be surprised if Holiday sales were even between the two.

*Though of course my signature has to come true*



Tease.
