Selling 70% for the rest of the fiscal year (through March 2010) really won't be that difficult given the software lineup through end of March and the reduction in price of the console. Let's not forget that it's 70% of last year's sales, which weren't honestly all that good. It's not as high of a bar as that percentage would indicate.

They're not going to sell 70% year over year (ie, last year's sales +70%) in this economy. Period.
