I think I'm going to hibernate until this holiday is over. It pains me to see PS3 getting its ass tossed.

Not bad for PS3 after all, should be just up slightly YoY
I went out of the internetz for like three months and the Wii is still not dead? What a disappointment.

PS3 is only down by 4% YoY?
Then why the hell are PS3 fans in "Oh my god please hang me now!" mode?
Wii is down by 36% and Wii fans are acting like it's up by 200%!
I demand PS3 fans be happy!

Hmmm.....didn't realize this. It just looks so bad against it's competitors. |
Not even that, last year PS3 was whipping 360's ass, 360 isn't laying that much damage this xmas (120k this week) and Wii is nowhere near dominating as much as it did before, will be down 400k YoY this week ..
I didn't realize how huge Wii sales would be this holiday. :O
Hope it somewhat last post-Christmas season.... :P

I'd place a majority of the blame with GT5 on Sony's shoulders. I just don't understand how you can delay a game a few weeks before release, and then announce a new date a week and a half before it comes out, and honestly expect to maximize sales. Nintendo wouldn't do this to Mario, Microsoft wouldn't do this to Halo, and Activision wouldn't do this to Call of Duty, but Sony, for some reason, can't get its act together this generation, whether it be in marketing or just completely botching the release of its biggest franchise. I can't say how much bigger GT5 would've launched to if it weren't delayed, but I do think that really hurt it this holiday. But yeah, I agree, both are good consoles, and it's good to see the industry rebounding this holiday, particularly in these hard times. |
Good point. And I do prefer the PS3, but GT5 does nothing for me. Not a racer fan here. Just me.

We rarely agree man, but this is something I can't ignore. It's spot on. I'm truly stunned at PS3's numbers this week, FAR lower than they should be. Now GT wasn't ever really huge here, although it was big (in it's defense) and it will have some legs here (and maybe bundles too). But the release date issues (which also fall on Polyphony) are one of their biggest blunders this gen. |
They could possibly be planning to advertise it for months after release like Rockstar used to do with GTA. Though, they can't do it too long before they run into LBP2 and KZ3 early next year. On a sidenote, I think LBP2 would've really helped the PS3 this holiday. That being said, the PS3 has a great lineup next year (hopefully no games get this same kind of treatment) and it could very likely get a pricecut next year as well, which would help it a whole lot in Americas.
