and?

I was responding to the Ps3 not being the biggest selling console worldwide.   I wasnt referring to just being successful, I was responding to a post about it being number 1 worldwide.  So you kinda wasted your time there.  And you are right, the last sentence is arguable..... at best.

"doesnt bode well for the next PS"

I was more responding to that, and how leading in the 3 largest countries isnt as important as youre making it out to be. As long as youre still competitive and you have a market large enough to sell Millions of games its all good.

The PS3 has been/will be the top selling console Worldwide for 2 consecutive Years despite the best efforts of the competition. It has fantastic 1st and 3rd party support. It sells well in all America, Europe, Japan and the rest of the World. Its making profit. Sales were up YoY on Black Friday, showing there is still significant demand for a PlayStation at mass-market price.

Yep.

wasn't ps3 black friday sales last year around 900k?  this year they are around 700k?  isn't that down?
