      Great minds, though seperated by a planet's diameter, think alike.

        Am I reading that graph right? It seems like Wii's launch is as good as or better than the 360's at a comparable point.
        Indeed. The Wii is an incredibly simple thing to make, it's easier to produce them faster. The 360 was supply constrained til March.

          I thought the Wii was still supply constrained.

            Yep.

            Two consoles can both be supply constrained and the simpler/cheaper one can still produce faster. What is so difficult about this?

              Yup, the console that rules seem to be PS2 By a long shot.

              And Guitar Hero seems to be a very popular game.
              It is, very trendy.

              Guitar Hero II for the 360 looks awesome.

              And yeah, PS2 still owns. It's price is ridiculously low, game library ridiculously large.

                  • Why is it a void?

                    • Sorry, void is probably not the right word. It's more of a gaping whirlpool that sucks in all information, then spits it back out pro-Xbox somehow

                          Of course, the implication is supposed to be simple = bad.

                              Your implication seemed to be that the 360 sales at launch were constrained by supply, while the Wii sales indicated total demand. In fact if both are constrained by supply, then its simply not possible at this point to compare the demand pattern for the Wii with that for the Xbox, unless, say, one had an objective source on secondary market (Ebay) prices.

                                I made no such implication. It is clear that the Wii is also constrained by supply.

                                But my implication is, this really does not matter. The 360 has managed to enlarge its lead on the Wii and the PS3 in 2006.
