Gamasutra has an amazingly in-depth analysis of the latest sales numbers to come out of the NPD. They take a look at NCAA sales on different platforms, console sales, and total yearly sales projections for 2007. From their early analysis it looks like this will be a huge year for the game business as it possibly passes $14 billion in revenue. You might recall that 2006 started out slowly, lagging behind 2005 revenue for a few months. As the year wore on, the Xbox 360 began to move more software, the Nintendo DS Lite took off, and the holiday season ended with robust sales for everyone. That momentum has carried over into 2007, with sales currently tracking at 40% above the 2006 levels. See The Full Article Here
