Guys and gals comparing the sales to the GC, just remember...
The Gamecube sold 6 million in its first year.
PS3 sold 5.63 million in its first year.

First year is not everything

the ps3 numers are so low cause of 2 main reasons, one is the ps3 launched in europe 5 months later, europe is ps3 strongest region, so ps3  1st year numbers don't really show the whole picture and the second reason is 599$, that was way too over priced for a consoel back then.

About ur first reason, GC didnt release in Europe until May 2002

that didn't make a differnce for GC it only sold 4 million that whole generation in europe, while the ps3 sold 32 million.

Which is Clearly397's point.
