 And did I mention brand name yet? Even if Xbox is bigger than ever, PlayStation is still bigger. Well, in that sense regions are very important I must say.

 

Actually now the problem is that the Playstation is starting to be seen as a failed brand.  My local Target and CostCo case in point.   At Targe Xbox 360 and the Wii have huge sections devoted to them and the PS3 section is 1/3 the size.  Our CostCo no longer even has a PS3 software section. Just has PS3 bundles and that is all.

Like I said, regions are important. Xbox is growing pretty big in North America but is still far behind that in Europe and Japan, even if it is growing even there. Failed brand? I don't think so. I'd say it's pretty much forum-talk and doomsday-blogs. The average consumer doesn't probably think of PlayStation as a failed brand.
