OK, Japan is Sony's - period. I know the wii's been selling like hotcakes (it has everywhere really) but by nov. next year we'll start to see signs of a significant shift from wii to PS3 in Japan. Sony has a boat load of new stuff we - ..erm.. I mean the general public - haven't even heard of yet coming for that region of the world and they'll take their time to make sure they nail their presentation and line-up right so once the momentum starts, the chances of it slowing would be minimal.

...

My, my - aren't you the brave one!

"Japan is Sony's - period"

I admire your confidence - especially after people were saying the same thing about the PSP:DS.

In my opinion, Sony will be doing well if they can take HALF the marketshare that the Wii will take.

Don't forget that you actually have competition this time around. And like the DS:PSP - its not that the PSP will sell badly, or have bad games - its that the DS will sell so much better, cheaper and have more innovative, casual tititles.

Exactly the same thing will happen to this console generation (unless there is a massive turnaround!). Except (if anything), the Wii is doing a lot better than the DS did at this stage of its life.

 

 


No dude, not brave at all. Brave would mean me sticking my neck on the line in belief that it won't be hacked off. I'm afraid I'm not so brave at all. My statements don't come from some act of bravado but just a pattern I see plain as day that others, oddly enough, don't see.

See, there are people that make a good living from watching patterns develop in varied industrial fields. These guys (if they're good) can see + or - patterns and inform their clients on their findings. Some are very good at it and see these patterns plain as day, others are OK at it but most people really suck at it thus the need for financial industry analysts.

I wish I could lead you to believe I have gonads of a Bull but in actuality it's just that I see clear as day. Unles something catastrophic happens in the industry, Sony's console will be on top for this gen yet again. The only difference I see is the Nintendo beating out MCs console this time round.
