Some folks are letting the whole slim and price cut give them dellusions of grandeur.

You do realize the PS3 actually sold more then the Wii in Japan for the first 4 and a half months of this yr right?   Without a price cut that is. There is no delusions here, only opinions that are plausable.

was about 3 months actually, they sold about the same amount over the first 4 and a half months.  Price cuts have never had that much impact in Japan, PS3 held even with wii for so long because of big releases.  Now the wii is taking the lead because of big releases.  You'll remember the 360 going ahead of the PS3 for a while because of big releases.  You won't remember the price cut that the 360 or PS3 had in Japan because there wasn't much of an impact.
