Oh, and i think it's worth noting Garcian...
Last year Wii outsold PS3 on this week by over 1.2 Million units.
It's amazing how things can change, eh? |
What changed? The PS3 was still outsold.
|
What changed was the PS3's momentum. It went from a dying console last year, which was suspected to die this year... To be the first 3rd place console ever to sell 1million units in a single week.
Being outsold by the Wii by over 1.2 Million units one year, then pulling that gap back to ~500k units the next year despite a Wii Pricecut and a much stronger Wii holiday lineup with plenty of supply... Is amazing.
|
Don't forget PS3 price cut, re-design, and its biggest game ever released in said week - those had a lot EVERYTHING to do with it too!
But yes, PS3 has done well.
|
That's the point. It's amazing how things have changed in a year.
Oh, and at the red... PS3 - It Only Does Everything.
|
Yeah it is funny how things changed, seen as you never thought the PS3 was dying, now all of a sudden it's doing well and you're acting like you're in agreement!
Personally for it's price last christmas it was doing pretty darn well, when we got into the summer months both consoles looked a bit dire.
Do you not think a repeat of that will happen this year? (I mean Q1 - Q3 2010)

Nope, i always knew it was capable of these sales. Im talking the majority of people, and you can't deny that a whole lot of people thought this year would be "it" for PS3. Even when the Slim/Cut was announced, people expected it tobe back below 360 in a matter of weeks.
Agreed.
Nope. Not at all. This year was pretty empty for software when compared to what's coming up in 2010. I feel PS3 has the best system sellers though for the first half of the year. God of War 3, Gran Turismo 5 and to an extent, Final Fantasy 13. Japan numbers should stay pretty high too considering the releases over there. I have absolutely no idea what's coming on Q3/Q4, but i expect PS3 to pretty much dominate the 360 and not be too far away from Ninty up until Q4... Where MS drop the pricecut and Natal.
