PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !

PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !

April 2008 was Mario Kart and the first period were it wasn't supply constrained anymore in Others.

That's why.

Both in Others and NA there was a period of amplified sales when Nintendo started to be able to match the demand( it started earlier in 2008 in Others and a little later in NA as Nintendo took longer to provide decent stocks to US retailers)

Now that Wii are in stock at most retailers though, most customers don't feel compelled to buy one as soon as they see one on display. So now sales are going to stabilize at a much lower level... My guess is around 200k/week worlwide ( Golden Week will keep it around 250k for the next few weeks..).

Drops all round, big and small. Shaping up to be low week I guess.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

Looks like gaming is finally been hiting by the crisis.

 Thanks, that helps put everything in perspective.

Wii needs some compelling software (pricecut couldn't hurt)

PS3 needs a pricecut

360 benefiting from lowest pricepoint both here and NA but still down.



 

YEAH! GO PS3!

The less you sell the less you lose!
