| Dolla Dolla said: Thanks for the link, Just_Ben. Babel fish is kinda bad when it comes to translation. Any French speakers who can give a clear translation? Also, does anyone have numbers for the PS2 in France for the first 6 months for comparison? |
i don't know about France but for Europe as a whole the Hardware shipment figures for PS2 are 2.85 million for March 2001 (19 weeks after release)
take into account that those are old "sony shipment" figures probably means 2M+ sold to retail, and i bet most were sold so at least 1.75 million sold to consumers.
The PS3 numbers are currently at 1.44 million, which is for 6 months of sales (26 weeks)
actually i was wrong....i've just realised we can go back further than before for 'others' weekly and for week ending April 1st 2001 PS2 was at 1.68 million.
So at 19 weeks old for each VGC has PS2 at 1.68M and PS3 at 1.22M.....actually a lot closer than i thought....though you have to bare in mind over half of that figure for PS3 was in the first two weeks (666K) wheras after 3 weeks for PS2 it was less than 1/3 (524K) <---sorry that has to be 3 weeks but 'others' data only goes back to 10th dec.
i think it's possible PS3 has sold more than 200k, especially as the PS2 was at 320k for the same period.
