So which is it? is Price a factr or not a factor? You can't have it both ways. Either way it looks like the Wii got beat by a console that is roughly twice it's price this week, and that is a major accomplishment for Sony. They deserve a real pat on the back this week. |
Oh come on. Weren't you watching the previous weeks as PS3 sales dipped severely? It's very obvious what has happened - people knew this was coming, and they waited for it. There's very little to suggest that these increased sales will be completely sustained over time. On the other hand, the Wii is still facing supply shortages. I've been checking in Wal Marts and Targets in the Minneapolis and Austin areas since November, and I've only seen Wii's available once. There's no way to know if the PS3 would have outsold the Wii this week if both had unlimited supplies available.
