As of this weeks numbers the Xbox 360's numbers are back to the 5.5 Million console lead over the PS3 that it has pretty much maintained over the life (of both consoles)..

After a good year of cheaper PS3 (slims) the lead was down to nearly 4.5 million and now that has been quickly erased in 10 weeks.  By end of year the 360 could very well pull away to 6 million ahead..

Wasn't the 360 8 Million ahead before the PS3 Slim? I forget...


It was NEVER close to 8 million ahead.. its bounced mostly between 5 and 6 million ahead

Let me touch on that again..

The only place it was 8 million ahead was the USA and now that number is close to 10 million.. worldwide its been close to 5 million or more for the most part.. but I think it'll hit 6 at least now worldwide for as this console has a strong 6 months ahead with a slim 360 for the holidays

You guys are too fast! Slow down!!



                            

Impressive that Microsoft is showing that you actually don't need Japan to have a succesfull console..



 

Face the future.. Gamecenter ID: nikkom_nl (oh no he didn't!!) 

Oh. And I'm curious...

Where are the people who have been saying for a year that pricepoint doesn't affect the Wii?

I think PS3 and Wii are proving that as well though.

Oh was this the week last year where I made the

"NA SALES UP -- PS3 DOMINATES ALL" thread when PS3 was only ahead of wii or 360 by 1K?

good times...good times

Last year... week before PS3 Slim.

360: 31,201,088
PS3: 22,657,164

GAP:  8,543,924

It was over 8 million ahead.

I checked and Im surprised it was ahead in fact 8 million world wide before PS3 slim..  hard to see it being that far ahead again, but this generation its pretty safe to say 360 will end up in 2nd place

I said that the Wii pricepoint is not a problem. That was 2008 and I meant it in a good way. They could have old the Wii for $300 back then and they probably still had shortages.

I didn't say anything about Wii pricepoint in the past months / last year



Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

I was talking more recently

But...

I think the boost like this due to price, simply prove that pricepoint is an issue for every console.

If anything it proved you need America to win ... lower sales of the wii in America.... or raise sales of the PS3 in America... or lower sales of the Xbox 360 in America...
