Ok guys, I just wanna laugh at you guys.

First off.

Japan is a MUCH bigger market than the UK.

Second.

First 5 weeks in Japan - 249,000
First 2 weeks in the UK - 194,700

If sales keep up at 20,000 for the next 3 weeks... UK will be selling more units than ***JAPAN***.

This is not counting the other 70% of europe.

NDS sold average of  31,875 units a week in UK last year.

If 27,000 is bad. NDS is selling bad as well.

I would expect the PS3 sales to drop to around 20,000/week.

This sounds like ***GREAT*** info to me. 


First off the PS3 had a limited supply in Japan and sold roughly 80,000 per week from week 6 through 9 ...

Secondly, I don't know about anyone else but I expected this kind of drop and anticipate that it will drop to a lower level over the next couple of weeks (probably 10k-15k per week); I expect that one of the reasons so many people are making such a big deal about this was that PS3 fans declared that the "PS3 will own Europe" while everyone else said "Wait until next week"
