Lolzies, I already explained that this isn't a holiday period yet, not even the running into that period. Ioi has said that that will start happening in two or three weeks (forget the specifics).

Besides, you keep yapping about "no price cut in some parts of the world"... which means that if it bumps the numbers from the previous numbers in such a way, even WITHOUT a price cut (or so you say) in some regions, then it's definitely working :)

OK then, "holiday months" then. Lets wait for November NPD then. Its odd that September Nintendo sell 467,000 Wiis without a price cut though. unless people bought 200,000 Wiis in a week alone. i think thats got to to do with WSR  and not the price cut. I think Nintendo will be disappointed that the wiis sells 400,000-500,000 whether with a pricecut or without

 

And Nintendo will deeply disappointed if the Wiis sells only between 600,000-800,000 during the holiday months. And downward slope after that(between the month of Jan-Feb) to only 300,000 a month.

 

I wonder if Nintendo will announced another pricecut soon after the holidays?

straight form the horse's mouth Iwata himself:

"With the price drop, sales returned to a certain level, but they just did not reach the level of last year around this time. We decided that it would be difficult to sell enough to recover from the poor performance of the first half of the year."


Its very sad day right now. YEAH... I DID WIN, but what did I get? I just wish I didnt trolled even I didnt mean to Nintendo right now. Its just shocking right now *pours wine on Nintendo* I mean it though.


I hope Nintendo could recover and sorry for the posts I made

You still need to learn how to read. And to stop being so fucking dramatic.

The only way to be able to tell is to wait after the holidays and after the release of the system sellers in 2010. Other than that the pricecut has given sony an 100k+- boost in weekly sales. It has stabilized above 200k which is an outstanding spot and should prove to be a contender in taking 2nd place.

Iwata: "We decided that it would be difficult to sell enough to recover from the poor performance of the first half of the year." On the new 20 million target, he said, "In order to reach it, we'll have to move quite a large quantity, but it's a figure we released after having felt the momentum returning [based off the price drop].""

Actually you won and everyone here. The first translation was We failed the Wii then Wii has failed then the correct translation Wii has stalled. Nothing really mentioned that Nintendo failed the Wii or Wii has failed. its just shitty gaming journalism at its best.
