whoa ps3 down form 230ish from last aug.
sony better get out the pen and pad and head back to the lab
console preference among the current HDs for this gen are likely to carry over to next gen, the MS dominance we see in US and UK could start spreading to more regions next gen and even get more MS dominated in US and UK
if i were sony i would start rolling out with some bundles for US i dont really recall sony doing many in that region something like two or one older good exclusive games for $249, similar to what MS has done in the past years during this time cause unless we see something different for sep. (there have been some excuses thrown out like supply, only half month of price drop ect.) a $249 160gb aint going to cut it
as for MS its a rap they will most certainly out sell the other two by quite some margin now that wii sales are lower than last year, the majority of consumers that bought a wii years past during the holidays will most likely move to MS, on top of that NPD hasnt even started recording walmart and such something that they said will come soon. you thought youd see high MS you aint seen nothing yet

I dont think bundles will really affect things much. Games really do sell consoles, and this gen, MS nailed the software offerings in US.
Not only that, but its just the 'it' console in the region i assume, people are buying 360's no matter what at this point (friends, software, price,image etc.).
I agree with you though on the shift in console preferences in the region, and how that will carry over into next gen. Dangerous times for Sony. The US is the last market you want to be irrelevant in since its by far the biggest and most important.
Unless Sony do something amazing next gen compared to MS, Ninty, which they probably wont..these trends will probably continue. Sony REALLY needs to think about how it approaches the next gen. And unlike MS Sony doesnt have unlimited resources.

They should be more concerned about VITA because Psp is absolutely dead and im not seeing VITA doing any different. Well they have Call of Duty.

mentioned that in my other post...dedicated gaming handhelds...not looking good.
Guess Sony shoudl be worried on all fronts, Sony is DOOMED :P

It looks like casual handheld gaming is almost dead. But if enthusiast handheld gaming is also dead we will know when Vita releases because Nintendo has nothing to offer to that crowd with 3DS.
