great numbers for ds, 360 and wii.

I don´t know about ps3

I´m also shocked at the 100k (1370k vs 1270k) difference between 360 and wii. I thought it may have been larger.

Another interesting thing to find out would be how many of those 1.4m 360s were the Forza 3/Alan Wake bundle. Because as someone on gaf just said there could be a chance that Forza 3 actually outsold GT5 last month. That would be pretty mental.

Last PS3 price cut was 1 year and 2 months ago. Isn't it time to start thinking about the next one?


360 hasn't had one since 2008.


Unless you count every time there's a new sku they drop the prices of the old models 

And this chart shows how Elites went from 399 to 299 in 2009, yeah the elite replaced the premium essentially but that's a big change worth noting.  Overall resistance to price drops probably has a lot to deal with screwy changes in exchange rates and inflation in America. 

That same thing happens with the PS3, though, too.  While it does add value, its just not the same.  "Xbox 360, now starting at $199" and "PS3, now only $299" made people come out in droves.  "PS3, now with a bigger harddrive" just doesn't have the same ring ...

incredible change. They got 60GB more than before for the same price.... I-N-C-R-E-D-I-B-L-E.

If that's not a big opportunity to attract a new crowd to buy a 360 I don't know what is....

But there are no Forza in TOP10.

Or bundled games aren't count?

They forgot to account for PS3's 10 year plan will post an adjusted picture to be more accurate

I don't think the site can handle the meltdown if that would happen...  but just to be safe I better put on a helmet...
