Still, regardless of how you compare sales, there are flaws in every method and no way can give a clear, satisfactory picture since the situations varied so much. So many "What if's" involved. What if the PS3 had a full year on the market with no competition at $500 and $600. I'm sure with no competition, it's sales would have been very low since many would not be willing to cough up that much money with no other options to consider, and would be more than willing to wait. |
Yes that is a what if that would have made things different but than Sony would have had the price down $100 or more when competition was out. They had a price cut when the GC was released against the PS2.
Still looking at how you have it we might as well void out maybe 10 million PS2 sales because there was not competition for the PS2 for a year or so (have to remember the PS2 was released in Japan a few months before America and like a year later for Europe than the GC)
