TC: to tell you the truth I have Never heard anyone in my life saying a console failed because it was in third place. No one ever said the gamecube failed because it didnt it just didnt sell that well.
Now onto the 360. People are saying it failed in Japan because it is "failing". At the rate that the 360 is selling I dont see it selling over 1 million in Japan till late 2009. Well thats if Microsoft keeps making there console there. Japan doesnt like Microsoft at all. Microsoft even said that there own Windows Vista did "fail". Microsoft has been losing so much money on video game consoles that its unbeilivable, I looked at something somewhere and it looks like Microsoft has lost around 1-5 billion (I forgot the exact number) on the Xbox and the 360 doesnt look like it will be making money for them either.
People are saying the PS3 is failing because its not selling as well as they hoped and I hate to but its true they arnt selling as many as hoped. The reason is though because of the price. No one wants to spend 600 on a console. NO ONE! If the PS3 came out at 300 bucks then it would still be sold out but Sony cant do that because they cant afford it. There losing around 200 per console right now.
