I've compared PS3's sales to the Wii (it has been beating Nintendo's Wii the last five weeks) and I've also pointed out that it's no big deal for the PSP to post better sales in any given week than the DS in Japan. As a matter of fact it's pretty much been a given to expect the PSP to beat the DS in Japan. I will admit that I was too lazy to go back and edit that post to put FFXIII as pretty much a Summer 2010 exclusive for the PS3 in Japan. However, by the time it arrives in the Summer of 2010, the PS3 will be at 6 or 7 million PS3's sold in Japan while the 360 probably won't have passed 1,350,000 consoles sold in Japan by that date. And did you even listen to the words of the song, I think that "you've got to lose to know to win' describes where Sony is at in this gen pretty well. And they're going to know how to win enough to finish second among all consoles and first among the hd consoles by the time this gen is over.

1. Wii has sold more units than PS3 in Japan so far this year even though PS3 has been beating Wii the last 5 weeks. The gap of the 2 consoles is 4.95 millions.
2. The only time this year PSP sold more than DSi was the two weeks when the new PSP colors were released. However, I would agree that it is a given and not a big deal for PSP to outsell DS every week.
3. Now you are saying FFXIII will be released in Summer 2010. So when are FFXIII Versus and GT5 going to be released in Japan?
MikeB predicts that the PS3 will sell about 140 million units by the end of 2016 and triple the amount of 360s in the long run.
