Disappointing xbox 360 numbers. I expected 180k. Good year over year increase but I wanted more. Maybe I'm just greedy

In other news unrelated to the DS! The wii is now .5% away from the magical 50.

Out of all the stores i've been to over the last week the DS had the strongest suppy, so i'm pretty sure thats not the issue. Most peope would of bought it for their kids so its no really surprise to see their sales drop the most.

Thanks for clearly explaining why the DS was sold out of most stores in America last week.

The DS number is very strange. One would expect similar numbers to others. I don't think there is a huge supply constraint. Best to hold off comment until there is some kind of clarification.

I've come to the conclusion those trackers aren't always reliable. I've been watching them for some time and they don't always reflect reality. I think those sites make money from people clicking the links. Walmart, Gamestop and Amazon are stocked, so I don't think there is a huge supply problem.

Its kinda funny when one see the DS sales number on par with the avg sales number of the PS3,360 and PSP we start to think somethings wrong with the numbers or supply issues. That goes to show you the type of sale expectation we gotten use to from the DS lol.

I would exect a drop, but inline with what we see in the UK. These numbers simply don't line up with the data received from others, even though I think the demographics are fairly similar.

DS poor, 360 > PS3 gap is so small compared to what the holiday sales brought...



I hope my 360 doesn't RRoD

I agree with Squilliam in that the PS3/360 gap there isn't unpleasant to the PS3.

The Wii numbers are still quite good, at any rate. I wonder if supply will be able to keep this up next week, or if we'll see another drop?

Wii having a million in the US in January would be hilarious.

it is a little sad to see ps3 can't perform in NA region.
