ps3 sold 87 million, launching late in europe it's best region, and being over priced for the market. i don't see anyway it would have not sold over a 100 million, 360 sales would have sold much worse in europe, because playstation is a much stronger brand, but the price 499$ euros, which is like 700-800$ at the time. I don't see nothing ignorant in my post. just look at ps4 sales in europe after sony got it right.

The PS3 cost Sony an estimated ~$800 to make per unit at launch for the 20GB model. They were losing  ~$200 to $300 per unit sold. And you're here talking about a $399 launch. It takes a lot more than a lower launch price for the PS3 to not be a disaster, and it takes a lot more than that for them to make up the 15 Million gap on the Wii.

He doesnt care if Sony hemorrhages money, so long as he gets the W lol
