If you compare the PS3 to the Dreamcast and Gamecube you'll see that it has sold fewer units in both Japan and North America and is selling at such a slow rate it probably will not catch up up in the near future;

Try this one:

That's right, there is NO DATA for the Dreamcast and Gamecube in the other regions ...

The PS3 is selling worse than the Gamecube and Dreamcast in Japan and North America and it is likely they're not selling enough better in Europe/Others to compensate for that fact.

There's no data for the other regions, yet somehow you know for a fact that it's selling worse? Where do you get your data?

Oh, and here's another fun one, Let's seperate the PS3 by region...Japan and America (Japan obviously doing poorly?)  I don't get where you say it's selling worse than the DC...

Interesting, just looking into it the Dreamcast only has data for Japan ...

(we used to have data for America which demonstrated my point)

Anyways ... I won't be able to demonstrate my point but consider that after (approximately) 12 months on the market Sega shipped nearly 9 Million consoles and they did not overship nearly as badly as Sony has so far.
