So is this the first time PS3 has been down year over year since the price cut/new model then?


It has been flat-ish or slightly down on some weeks before at Others, but WW it hasn't been down this year yet if I'm not mistaken.

PS3 is down because the 360 is taking its sales in the UK..

 

the 360 is very cheap in the UK, like 150 while the ps3 is 300 in the UK, in fact in other european territories its as cheap as the ps2.. Until the ps3 could get a cheaper price, I don't think it can really do much in significant YTD sales in europe. It's selling well but being down YTD shows me it's beginning to reach its market saturation at that price point.

 

BTW this could be a week were PS3 outsells Wii world wide once again..

Was just abotu to check if anything was posted, good job darth!

 

360 seems to be falling a little bit, I wonder what it will settle on for now and what it will settle on in 6 months.

Wii fell sharper this week than the 360.

Also before Others sales this week.

PS3 - 36.6
360 - 42.0

After

PS3 - 36.9
360 -42.2

So adjustments for the HD consoles!

fixed

360 sells more and the gap got smaller. wtf???

Blizzard and Nintendo owning the charts. That's what I like to see!

Majority of stores in the UK sent BACK their phats to Microsoft because they didn't want to sell them at a loss.

Also the GAME shops have practically got rid of all phat stock. The £149 model isn't available in the UK until tomorrow, it's launch.

So majority of UK sales for 360 are 250G Slims.

I see then I must have been mistakened.. but I meant in general though, but the ps3 didn't have trouble against the 360 despite it's price, the 360 s has made it sell incredinly well!

I'm happy with WAKE here! It seems to be holding up well, 10,000 weekly.


Yes! Maybe if we keep our fingers crossed, we'll get a sequel! We at least have another DLC episode to look forward to, if nothing else.



themanwithnoname's law: As an America's sales or NPD thread grows longer, the probabilty of the comment "America = World" [sarcasticly] being made approaches 1.

Which costs 190 pounds (amazon) in comparison to 245 for the 160gb PS3
