Is MJ the experience not out on PS3 in the US yet?  It has been advertised almost like an exclusive on TV in the UK...

It is out, it just sold really badly. 19K opening week. One of the casualties of not having a top 200 chart.

Anyway, how does PS3 outsell Wii and 360 yet have so much lower software? We're almost back to the whole PS3 doesn't move software scenario.

The gap is 3.6m for ages;.

Anyway retailers over here had some nice sales for X360, 285 Euro for an X360 slim (250 GB ersion) Kinect adventures/kinect sports and MJ experience...and Kinect went down to 125 Euro...All just for one day/few days though..



 

So what pushed Kinect in America was a dead and bleached man? Americans are strange.  OTOH, heavy advertising just pushed it by 6k more in EMEAA... Maybe Europeans don't trust devices mixing up with undead singers....   

Anyway, America is supporting Kinect and 3DS more than any other region.

Japan helps 3DS too to keep WW sales leadership some more weeks, but it also keeps on giving PSP a second youth.

PS3 first again amongst home consoles. Its big YoY drop also shows that during April of last year it was still enjoying the huge sales boost since the previous September price drop, so it looks like price drops benefit PS3 the most and the longer.

TGS, Third Grade Shooter: brand new genre invented by Kevin Butler exclusively for Natal WiiToo Kinect. PEW! PEW-PEW-PEW! 
 


Not too much this week. PS3 on top, 360 got a nice little boost, beating the Wii and the 3DS not so hot.

Price cuts are really necessary now. I expect price cuts to be announced at E3 (like many others) but I think that there's also a possibility that the have to wait till Gamescom.

Anyway, I'm happy that Killzone 3 shows very good legs. Hopefully it continues like this.
