People are really underestimating the PS3 ... |
No, I'm just taking historical trends with price cuts, especially of second and third place systems, and the fact that the PS3 didn't move much software with the price cut, just hardware, indicating either people just wanted the blu-ray capability, or it was a lot of upgrades, and the fact that I haven't heard of any rabid demand after the first week, indicating most of the demand was satisfied early

Historical trends? Answer me this...
When was the last time a 3rd or 2nd placed console was the 3rd fastest selling console in history?
You ARE underestimating the PS3, as Seece said.
And also, there was plenty of SW sold.

Its not the third fastest selling console in history PS1, PS2, Wii, sold faster than the PS3, probably others did as well in individual territories, remeber older consoles didn't have as much coverage WW as modern consoles do.
Also you are ignoring that population has grown and new markets have been covered in recent generations more than in earlier ones, the fact is the PS3 is still a third place console.
Also no there wasn't plenty of software sold, in US it fell 11% and in Japan it was kept up by Gundam

PS3 got to 23.93 Million quicker than PS1 did.
PS3, so far... > PS1
In US the week before it, Batman was released and the Slim had already been out a week in a few places.
Japan... wow, the SW was held up by the biggest game released that week. Shocking news!

You should not use the PS1 timeline VGChartz has Carl, go with Shipped figures.

I know, but even then... im 99% positive what i say is true.
