Also quite a few older Wii titles were back in the top 20 this week. Still very good PSP numbers. I think the PS3 is looking like it is dropping a bit (not that is in danger of falling behind the other home consoles), but a few weeks ago it seemed like 25k was its baseline, and now it is doing 21k during a partial holiday week. I'm sure when the Yakuza game comes out it will get a boost. I'm really excited about seeing how the next batch of 3DS titles do when they start releasing in a couple of weeks. |
Even though it is a handheld and not a console, I'm of the mindset that the 3DS releasing actually is the cause of slightly lower PS3 sales. If you think about it, if you have people that are thinking of buying a system (handheld or console), they likely don't have enough spare money to just throw towards both systems, so some sales that may have went towards the PS3 are instead going towards the 3DS.
Money can't buy happiness. Just video games, which make me happy.
