Wow at Wii drop, didn't expect that, I guess more people are actually chosing PS3 over Wii now.

At this rate it'll go below 100k WW again, after a price cut ... not really good news.

Well it never actually had a price cut in Japan, it just had more added to the base system. It went from the System with 1 controller to the System with 2 controllers and WSR. It's still the same 20,000 yen price though. After the price cut the PS3 is now down to 25,000 yen.

I was talking Europe/America with the price cut, but I suppose Wii has done somewhat well, that said it's had a slew of releases lately.

I wonder how well MH will stay.

I suppose the PS3 hardware #s are somewhat impressive as the PS3 might have seen a Wii-like drop this week without MH.

Also sad that Neptunia didn't so well.

PS3 boost after price cut.

America:
First week +40% Second week +8%

Japan:
First week +45% Second week +14.6%

EMEAA:
First week +46% Second week ???

EMEAA Second week +17%

Second week has been definitely not linear in ratio to first week.
