OUCH!

Only 1 week after the PS3 Price drop AND the introduction of the 40GB PS3, sales are below the Wii.

I seriously thought that the PS3 would be selling more this week then last week.

If this is the case, what is going to happen to Sony. This was their last chance to make the PS3 a viable system. I mean, It is still selling well but after a major price drop and new SKU it has already fallen... I was expecting the sales to go up more, not down... and I'm sure both Sony and developers where expecting the same too.

I guess they are doomed then.

haha OUCH! , you should have used more !!!!!!

 haha... Yes that is what I meant... last chance to make the PS3 more viable for the 07 holidays.

 

They are far from being doomed. 2008 they will preform much better.  I was simply stating for this year but didn't actually mention that.  I just was expecting a lot more in terms of sales from such a huge price drop.   I mean if they are ever going to overtake the wii in WW sales, you would think a price drop like this would go a long way in achieving this... sadly this is not the case.
