faltered that my titles have become a franchise now

i think it'll be PS3 aswell

very sure they have a gt5 bundle there i think even amazon EU shows one

would be huge if it can lock down both JP and EMEAA for those 3 months JP is already in the wraps

I disagree with that. What makes you so sure that P.S.3>Wii in Japan.

it already outsold it from Jan to now and with gt5 and move releasing i see no other senerio

Donkey Kong>Gran Turismo in Japan... I checked and the Donkey Kong Country games were bigger than the G.T games in Japan. Move won't do much because of its over expensive price...and K.E.Y should help as well. Sorry P.S.3 is doing great and all but WII>P.S.3 in Japan this Holiday.

Heh heh, no problem. I must have missed that on Amazon, thanks. Glad to see you agree. 

@Zuvuyeay Fifa and PES are coming out in the last week of quarter 3. PES is getting a late release on Wii.

How will a new PS3 SKU without a price cut help the PS3 outsell the Wii / 360 in EMEAA ?

OT : I do believe the PS3 can be the # 1 selling console in EMEAA in Q4 ! GT5 will make sure of it !



Who's the best Pac, Nas, and Big. Just leave it to that.

Why would you pick up the 120 GB model when you can wait a few weeks and get one with 160 GBs for the same price? Sony has said that move is selling very well in Europe, I think that's partially because people have likely been defaulting to the 320 GB bundle considering how good of a deal it is compared to the 120 GB model.

Looking at some of the current trends leaves me quite intrigued. Xbox 360 is selling amazingly thanks to the slim redesign. Wii seems to have veritably bottomed out. And PS3 is selling at a seemingly steady and consistent pace. Who could have possibly foreseen this a year ago? Looking at the line-up for all three systems in the coming months it’s clear that they’re all poised to have a pretty good quarter 4. But who do you think will come out on top among home consoles in EMEAA in the final 3 months of the year? I think it will be PS3. Let’s take a look at what each of the big three has to offer.

Tips

- As of the beginning of October Wii is down YOY in EMEAA by approximately 200k.

- As you can see above the PS3 160 GB model doesn't come to Europe until October.

- Every PS3 320 GB model is bundled with the Move starter pack.

- Nintendo's Fiscal year projection for the Wii is 17.5 million. Sony's PS3 projection is 15 million. Sony recently said that they're on track to reach that target and could potentially even beat it.

This prediction has just taken on a shocking and unexpected turn because not only is PS3 vying for the spot of #1 home console in Q4 but also, unless it beats Wii by slightly more than a razor thin margin, the spot of #1 home console in EMEAA for the year overall.
