MC Hardware

DSi LL – 28,916
Wii – 24,604

DSi – 17,356
Xbox 360 – 5,688
DS Lite – 4,992
PS2 – 1,558
PSP go – 1,046

Guess supply wasn't there for PS3 open pricing. Slight boost for Wii Party. 360 manages to stay above 5k.

When is the new PS3 coming out?  They should have timed WKC2 with the launch of the new model.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

when the hell does HW usually come out for MC or famistu?

what will PS3 HW be? can it top all? i think it will be near 40k

Software's usually another day or so.

I think 30k at least for PS3, and probably higher like you say.  Open pricing old SKUs should push it decently, but it also depends on what's in the channel.  The last system to get "open price"d was DS Lite, but there were so few on shelves by that point it didn't much impact overall.

I don't think Wii will have any increase tbh (so 20k-ish) and 360 will probably drop back to sub-5k (;_;).

Wii increased this week in anticipation of DQ next week while PS3 dropped. The sale trend this year in Japan is really unpredictable.

I thought it's this week.

EDIT: found out it's not. It is coming out on July 29th.



MikeB predicts that the PS3 will sell about 140 million units by the end of 2016 and triple the amount of 360s in the long run.

The PS3 is down from last week even though it had WKC2 and that price cut? Seems really strange.



@Boutros They're clearing out stock to make way for the 160 and 320 gig models. I assumed they would have a fair bit in the channel but I guess not.

lol, holy crap, I was totally wrong about hardware!  PS3 dropped some despite the cut (supplies?), Wii actually rose decently (ahead of PSP too) and 360 kept it's head above 5k (<3).

What is this PS3 cut ppl are talking about? was there a price cut for PS3 in japan?



Supposedly there was open pricing for older PS3 models on July 7 but it doesn't seem to have impacted anything.

Yes, current 120GB models went "open price", which basically means retailers can charge whatever.



White PS3 is more cooler.
