| kowenicki said: YOY with the all important %'s: Wii: DOWN 82k or DOWN 39% PS3: UP 9k or UP 6% 360: UP 49k or UP 48% 360 is re-writing the rules. |
and what rules are those?
if they are that its selling more in its later years compared to past consoles and we should bow down in amazement then no i will not be in aww with you and the rest
who ever is giving you that information has taken you for a long ride most likely some article on here or in some sales annalist article/thread
something along the lines of nes snes ps1 ps2 had there peak sales at X time frame so that means that 360 PS3 ect. will as well its kinda like the stuff with just b/c US has a certain amount of sales then that means a certain % of that will give you the rest of NA for all 3 consoles, i dont believe in none of these formulas
what all those articles have failed to mention is that none of those consoles launched at a high price of what the 360 and ps3 did there was no online gaming FPS partys then either what we are seeing with the 360 and soon with the ps3 is the mass market pricing point or the shit the leo-j keeps talking about mixed in with one of my beliefs of mass market price for the value point
360 hit that with the new slim line 250gb for 299, for gods sake thats when trey for life elpersador himslef bought one at that time had that happened earlier or even later in 360s life span then today we wouldnt be seeing yoy gains we are
theres also another formula that i believe in its called mass market price piont plus price for the value point exhaustion this occurs after a console reaches MMPP PFTV this phenomenon occurs once the consumers are exhausted of purchasing the said product after that period of time and may feel that theres no more MMPP PFTV either b/c of no meaningful SW releases, changes in the industry, or other decisions we have seen it for the wii and i believe will soon see it for the 360
i believe that the PS3 hasnt even seen mass market price point plus mass market price for the value point yet and when it does you can bet your bottom dollar that it will see the same if not better results
