Forums - Sales Discussion - Will next weeks sales be even bigger than this weeks?

Next week encompasses the last 4 days before Christmas and two days after Christmas. In New Zealand its traditional to have a sale on the 26th (Boxing day) So the sales on that day can also be significant, not sure how important they are overseas or even if shops are open.

So can we finally expect to see:

Xbox 360 > 1,000,000?

Wii > 2,000,000?

DS > 2,500,000?

If you follow the H.Y.P.E graphs, this week last year was the week of Christmas IIRC so it hopefully should follow that sales will blow past the previous years totals.



Tease.

Don't think so look at 2003 holiday data TWRoO i think was the 1st to mention this in his 10 week countdown no one shops on the 25 everything is closed on 26 and 27 there won't be as much shopping as 19 and 20 it's been said all over the NA is up thread that ps3 will get to 600k 360 will get 2 1mill and wii will get 2 2mill i don't think this will happen people need to use the the wonder full graphs ioi gave us to predict things

The wii may not follow the same sales the ps2 did in 03 it got people in a trance so in may gain a little than this week

No. Next week (the week ending Dec 26th) will be a lot weaker than this week.

We'll see rufly:

Wii: 1 million
X360: 500,000
PS2: 280,000

 I think you mean PS3.  Anyway, I'd personally guess about 100k more to the ps3 and 360 and 200k more to the wii from your figures.  Still not as big as the week of the 20th, but not bad at all. 



This past Saturday (Dec 20th) was the biggest shopping day of the year. (not Black Friday, which is not normally in the top 4).

I would expect sales to drop to what we saw the week of the 13th.
