Over 300k WW should be considered a success although that really depends upon current production output, current shipping rates and how many are actually received by retail outlets for the week.

If there are mountains of unsold consoles indicating SCE planned on retailers moving more hardware than was actually the case, that would be a problem.

By the same token, if PS3 slims are in low supply and retailers are having trouble keeping them in stock in most local markets, any shortfall in sales is not the blame of low demand, but a failure on SCE to meet current demand.

If they can sustain over 200k sales per week prior to the holiday build up, I see no reason for complaint there so long as the holiday build up sales are proportionately larger.
