But I guess that wasnt to be. The ps3 is a powerful console but doesnt bring much onto the table that hasnt already been seen in terms of innovation. Plus the DC had a killer price- $199 To a lot of people who grew up around the DC launch time, the DC was seen as a powerful, innovative console ahead of its time- and it wasnt only about the graphics. DC will always be a classic cult console. @steroid : http://vgchartz.com/hwlaunch.php?cons1=PS3®1=Japan&cons2=PS2®2=Japan&cons3=DC®3=Japan&weeks=156 Yup the ps3 is about 500 k units ahead of the DC in japan with aligned launches.. oh and btw the DC was considered a huge FLOP in japan. It gets worse when you compare it to PS2 sales. |
Want to make a bet that they'll sell 2million+ PS3s in Japan alone this year?
