IF YOU COMPARE THE TWO FROM THE LAUNCH DATE THE PS3. THE PS3 THREE IS TRACKING ABOUT 7 MILLION BELOW THE PS2 AT THIS POINT. AND BY THIS TIME IN ITS LIFE THE PS2 HAD EXPLOEDED. THE PS3 IS SELLING THE SAME. LOOK: http://vgchartz.com/hwlaunch.php?cons1=Wii®1=All&cons2=PS3®2=All&cons3=PS2®3=All&weeks=400 |
The PS3 will never match PS2 sales. 7 million units is a huge difference, and the PS3 still has to contend with an ongoing financial crisis. If anyone will match the PS2s success its the Wii. They may even overtake it. But trying to draw a comparison between PS2 and PS3 sales is pathetic. Sony screwed up this generation. They will never again enjoy the same success.
