Yes, but it will soon get a "runner's high" once MH3 and WSR release.

Well its not just Japan where its slowing.

Down 75k YoY so far, and America aint even up yet.

C'mon Carl.  That's just one week.  Hardly enough time to say it's slowing worldwide when it's up YTD overall from last year.

Not really.

Punch Out, EA Active, Guitar Hero, Wii Sports Resort and Motion Plus are enough to kick Wii up again from May on in the west.

PS3 outselling Wii 4:1 in Japan looks like a one week thing. When PS3 jumped to 77k on MGS4 in June 2008 it fell to 23k the next week, so its not unreasonable to expect PS3 back to 20k-25k in Japan next week, while Wii can jump to 30k-35k if Monster Hunter G tops 100,000. For the year, Wii:PS3 will be under 2:1 I imagine, but that is unlikely to happen in the western markets because the Xbox 360 takes half the PS3 market. In Japan, it takes maybe 1/4 of it which is why PS3 has had spikes above Wii in Japan fairly frequently but rarely in the west.

We need some gas in the tank. New games. Then it should get up and moving.

1. Its not surprising that the Wii couldn't maintain those sales numbers forever. It certainly lasted longer than its critics ever believed.

2. Nintendo, for unknown reasons, left the Wii with a very dry software lineup since... last summer? Have we had a good gamers game since Mario Kart? One that would actually appeal to the Japanese market? The real test will be what happens when and if the Wii games start rolling in again.

yes. if nintendo waits to long to release something hardcore then its gonna die, the phenomena isn't so astounding anymore. if the ps3 takes over in japan, america will fall next. then europe. (weird order but ull c) (and thats only if it starts taking over in japan with no releases)
