The 360 sold 81,865 and the Wii sold 80,282 that week. Wow! Maybe the Wii does need a price cut.

I guess the Wii was doomed 2 years ago?

I guess a 1600 unit difference is that bad..........

wow, how in the world did that happen? I just looked at releases and only Wolfenstein 3D, Fuel, and Red Faction: Guerrilla were released that week.

EDIT: in more amazement, PS3 had pretty much identical lineups for that week and the following week and the PS3 dropped. Did that many people go out and buy a X360 for Natal which has no release date or price?
