PS3 hardware in the Others region clearly underperformed next to expectations assuming these numbers arn't adjusted.

Hardware also underperformed relative to expectations in NA, once again assuming the preliminary reports are correct.

Conversely, I feel the hardware boost for the PS3 in Japan significantly exceeded all reasonable expectations (I saw some idiots predicting 100k, which I don't consider reasonable).

More than this week being a win for Sony, this week was a win for Konami, as MGS4 seems to have exceeded expectations in ALL regions.

 

Hardware didn't underperform in Others.

If you look at the last 6 months hardware has been averaging 118k/week for the last 3 months there since GT5P came out.

It was averaging 85k before that.

For the record the PS2 didn't get a single week over 100k/week outside of holydays in its first 2 years in Others...

 



PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !

PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !
