Was definitely taken back by how well PS3 held up after TOV in Japan. But I also stated that even if it does hold up, it could just have a much larger drop the next week after. Making up for lost ground almost. But as a whole on WW, I had put this weeks sales in the 200k-250k range if I remember correctly so once again staying up the high part of my predictions. Good job for PS3.

Now biggest comeback ever? That's just not necessary. It's nice to know that your 3rd place competitor still has the will to compete. I would only expect that from such a company, especially Sony. Things like this are to be seen, but not in 3 weeks. We'll see after the holiday season whether or not PS3 will really be a major competitor for 2010 and beyond.

Fair and balanced as usual man

I always try to be haha.  Just want to make sure when I talk about sales that I'm not stating too many definite and instead implying ranges.  No one can definitely say what is going to happen, but I can at least try to give the most likely scenarios and presenting the numerous sides. 

 

I am thinking for next week we'll see PS3 in the 175k-225k range.  If it does hold up like usual things of such it should be around that range.  Depending on how hard the Japanese fall is, we could see it towards the height of that range.  And I don't expect Wii to outsell it next week.  Wii is going to go a few days with it known that their is a pricedrop in Japan and Americas.  Meaning we might see Wii in Japan go below 10k for the first time ever.  Kind of a scary thought but given the circumstances I'm sure most people won't freak too much.  Then of course in America we'll see the obvious drops in sales before a price drop.  So PS3 should be able to take one more week from the Wii.  Then we'll see how it pans out, especially considering we don't know what is happening in Europe yet with the Wii.  Will be an interesting holiday season indeed but maybe not as interesting as some throw it out to be.  Between PS3 and 360... yea very interesting.
