Although I agree that the ps3 will not reach the 300k mark as fast as the wii. In terms of long term projections it's too early to tell. One thing I will say though is that the Australian market seems to be very pro sony when you consider the ridiculously high launch price of the ps3. I didn't think it would reach 200k untill well into it's second year. |
I agree, for such a high launch price it sold incredibly well down under during launch and has continued to sell solidly. It is even now outselling the 360 on a weekly basis. It could definately push the Wii in the later years of this generation as Australia has been Sony territory for the past two generations.
Owner of Wii, DS and 360, planning on getting a PS3 when it's cheaper. Supporter of all consoles.
