It's more or less the same target customer by the way, older people like me (34) who don't care that much about the price as long as it's... portable, powerful and sexy. Comparing PS3 and PSP doesn't make sense. Day one buy for me. |
I think comparing it to Apple products is a big mistake. Apple products sells like gothcakes even when they're super expensive because Apple is selling a lifestyle. You buy a 1200$ Macbook Air not because it's a good computer, but because it makes you cool. Same thing with iPods, iPhones, and all the other computers they sell.
No matter how small or 'sexy' a video game console is it's still a video game console. It doesn't make you cool.
Wii has more 20 million sellers than PS3 has 5 million sellers.
