Then they won't have control in any region. Do they make a PS3 version of the "arcade" model and strip out the Blu Ray and release a cheaper unit? |
As much as I would love to see that happen... it won't. The PS3 has done far better than 28,000k a week before with a much larger price range and much smaller library.
Alot of you guys are getting far to ahead of yourselves, getting caught up in the hype.
It's unfortunate that this sales spike will be short lived because Microsoft deserves more for leading the Japanese market in terms of effort. But I reckon than when LBP and WKC is released in Japan, the PS3 sales will easily spike higher than 28k without a price cut. It's the sad truth.
EDIT: Sony doesn't have control in any region, the Wii is the one in control now. Regardless, the 360 cannot stop the PS3 in Europe and Japan.
