| jarrod said: We have seen slowdown, PS3 is down yoy for 2011. Not the extreme (~50%) drop Wii has seen, but down none the less. For your Yakuza comparison to work, Kenzan would need to come after Y3. It'd be like if FFXIII were following XIII-2 and Versus, rather than the reverse. And I wouldn't really worry about your last sentence, there's 0% chance of that happening. DQX could be a 360 game, and it'd still probably pass 2 million. The only mainline DQ to ever sell less than FFXIII was the original Famicom game back in 1986. |
You misinterpreted the Yakuza comment. I meant Yakuza 3 pushed hardware despite Kenzan releasing before it. PS3 is down a measely 30k YOY. That will likely be erased, or close to it, next week with the Torne bundle price cut. Plus that and the silver model will counter the Hokuto and Torne boosts from last year. Like I said, we'll just have to agree to disagree. And I suppose we'll just have to wait and see in regards to DQX.
