What's the population of the UK compared to the population of Japan again?
(hang on, I'll Google them...)
Japan - 130m
UK - 60m
In Japan, the PS3 is selling 17k / week - and this is terrible. So the matching level for the UK is about half - 9-10k / week. Should hit those levels in a couple of weeks, and probably stay there for a while (until big releases).
Wasn't it also said that UK was one of the strongest markets for Sony? (or was that for MS?) Compared to other countries in Europe?
...
Anyway - none of this is surprising as well. Im most curious as to what Sony is going to do, to defuse the MEDIA - if these figures continue, and make headlines. Price drop? Bundles? Surprise announcement of games? Or nothing?
