All I gotta say is.
The PS3 is gonna fail horribly in Europe.
#1 PS3 #1
#2 360 #18
#3 Wii #78
Heh... Horribly... Horribly fail... Yes indeed... Fail... fail... fail... buhahahahahahaa...
Ok seriously. The PS3 is rocking amazon.co.uk
First off you realize that performance on a single site does not represent a larger trend, right? On top of that it is only a sales ranking which doesn't really give much information.
Hypothetically speaking, amazon.co.uk could have been receiving very small shipments of Wii systems because they are not a large retailer for Nintendo in the UK ... On the other hand maybe Sony said that they would ensure Amazon had enough systems to fill all pre-orders ... Or maybe the PS3 is just disproportionately popular in the UK ...
Consider
