Playstation 1: December 3rd, 1994 (JP) September 9th, 1995 (US) September 29th, 1995 (EU) Total time to launch between 1st and last major territory: 20.5mo Playstation 2: March 4th, 2000 (JP) October 26th, 2000 (US) November 24th, 2000 (EU) Total time to launch between 1st and last major territory: 16mo Playstation 3: November 11th, 2007 (JP) November 17th, 2007 (US) March 26th, 2008 (EU) Total time to launch between 1st and last major territory: 4.5mo So even if the PS3 didn't "launch worldwide at the same time", it still launched VASTLY closer to a worldwide launch than the PS1 did, or the PS2. And since VGC doesn't take that into consideration, we should. Why not compare sales patterns of the PS1/2 at their given time periods (10mo and 8mo after launch) against the PS3's at 4.5mo in to see where real sales lie? |
Your time differences are off for PS1 and PS2 launch
