Hhhmm.. what does Batman AA have to do with Uncharted, MGS4, LBP, Killzone 2 and Infamous not selling 100K copies this past week? Especially if you are buying a PS3 for the first time. Sure, I'd get Batman too, but I'd get at least 2 of these other games as well.

You really expected the software sales of each of those to rise that much? O_0

Hell yeah. Even 50K would have been nice. That's less then 10% of PS3 sold. How did Killzone 2, LBP and MGS4 not sell 50K with over 500K PS3 Slims being sold. Those are hugely popular titles and MSG4 sold almost 1 million copies when it launched, did it? The increase of these titles were less then 10K from the previous week. That's not good at all. Maybe people are waiting for the holidays.

As mentioned, the sales of upcoming games will show the increase.
Fro comparison sake, what did 360 games look like after last year's price drop. A serious question, no harm intended...

l'll have to look and see.
Software went from 984601 to 1240380 (+255779)
Hardware went from 112575 - 156091 (43516).
So the Xbox 360 sold a lot less consoles then the PS3 Slim, but had a larger increase in software sales after the price cut.
PS3 Software before Slim launch: 1238782 / After Slim Launch 1439548 = difference 200766.
That's not good at all for the PS3. The XBox 360 didn't have any quality exclusive out either
except for Infinite Undiscovery. XBox 360 hit titles didn't increase much either though. So maybe this is just the way it goes.
