SO MUCH FOR FLOP EHH?

Amazing sales.


Wait!

Flop or not Flop depends on PS3-HW sales, not alone Move sales, or not?

I mean Sony wanted to step into the Wii-casual-market (if it exists) and not just selling a new controller to the existing PS3 owners. So, imho, it's still an open question.

Nevertheless,

good move sales!

They wanted a "slow burner" but so far its selling like mad, so IMO its no flop FAR FAR from it.

Not right now, when we'll get solid numbers of sell through (after the holidays) we'll be able to compare HW sales with sales of move and see if it was a great system seller or just a great seller. Right now it looks like it was a better choice than a simple price cut, that's for sure.

I guess they overshipped elsewhere but  America, Sports Champions isn't a big seller in US right?



Around the Network

These are some massive numbers, specially with them excluding NavCon and PS Eye only! They are shipped, but stores wouldn't buy that much if it didn't have costumers interest. Would love to know the real unique userbase, but these numbers are great anyway.

Sure, it should have legs.

And i don't want to call it a flop, especially from the gamers point of view.

But Sony neither wanted it to sell as slow as possible, nor just to the existing user base.

IMHO, looking at Wii BF sales, it doesn't stopp people from buying wiis. We will see if move is the new HW-seller for PS3, but it looks like the slim version had much stronger impact than move, so far.
