Slump. Just saying the word seems to underline its meaning, as if the fatigued letters just roll over your lips with nary a care in the world. The Japanese sales charts still find themselves in last week's post-holiday slump, with only the DS Lite removing itself from the couch and bothering to put on some decent pants. It looks like the supply lines are still recovering from the holiday sales explosion, with all of the new consoles continuing their unimpressive sales slide. Next week should bring steadier supplies and, with any luck, a more abundant presence of the color green. We find it particulary soothing.
