Wagram: Agreed. Confirmation on Natal and rumours of price cuts could actually accentuate the gap between HD consoles this summer imo. Why buy now when the new model might be the same price in the fall? 360 was flagging already but this could get ugly.
Kazkarieh: On these forums I've read it's not bundled in Japan and parts of Asia so Wii/Sports is not 1/1.

Obviously 360 sales arent great, but they arent that bad. Whereas PSP sales and DS sales are relatively awful. This discussion is about this weeks sales and I am merely comparing to this week last year, a good barometer. |
First I wanted to agree with you but then I did some research and I found out that the last time the X360 sold under 38k in Others was half August 2007
Sorry but this is bad...

More than likely yes. The economic situation over there is downright scary.
Proudest Platinums:
1. Gran Turismo 5
2. Persona 4 Arena
3. Wipeout HD
4. Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2
5. Super Street Fighter 4
Again the vast majority of the gap (nearly 10k) comes from the "other" bracket in others. So not europe.
What is more interesting is that in a week with no significant release PS3 software is almost virtually tied with Wii SW in Others....
factor in the bundle software and PS3 actually sold more games than the Wii, quite good...
PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !
PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !
Darn if you compare with how PS3 was doing in May 2009, PS3 software is up like 120% YoY on a week with no significant release...
PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !
PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !

Well, you can also say that, opposite to the ps3, wii has seen no major releases so far, and that ps3 just got the FIFA world cup 2010 game, which is extremely popular in Europe.
Let's see in a couple of weeks, how wii will behave with things like Super Mario Galaxy 2
03/10/09 HUGE day in my life:

Thats a load of rubbish if you dont mind me saying. Virgin costs £55 per month if you have a multitude of channels that he now doesnt get with PlayTV... you are comparing apples and oranges. There will be many reasons why the PS3 is doing well.... Playtv isnt one of them.

Play TV is a massively under-rated prodect.
Like Ldn.se's friend i didn't bother getting virgin TV (or any other service) for the same reasons, i have PlayTV and i'm saving a fuck load a month. I don't get as many channels, but i do get a built in recorder and upscaled freeview with Play TV.

Er, what? You just got FIFA World Cup one week ago, and PS3 had a PILE of major releases over the March period. On the other hand the most significant release Wii's had in OVER FOUR MONTHS is Monster Hunter Tri....
A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.
Oh My God (of War) ! @ God of War III selling the same as last week !
Amazing legs !
