The real news is that the PS3 sold 650,000 the first 2 days and only 150,000 since. They must be selling less per week than the Wii and 360 now.

AFAIK the 619K figure was for "others" and not just Europe. 360 sales across Europe are very slow.

At the current rate the PS3 will stabilize between 12k-15k a week in Europe. The 360 is selling 11k a week in just the UK.


Right.  12k a week in all of Europe.  I'm sure that's an accurate estimate.  PS3 is still selling over 15k a week in Japan, and judging by PS2 and PS1 numbers Japan buys almost half the amount of Europe and half the amount of the US alone.  But what do I know?


It did 24k in all of Europe last week.  Even if it has stabilized already at the 24k level that is less than the Wii and 360.  Not good.

600k first 2 days (Marck 23-24). 

The week after was 108,000 (March 25-31). 


17k in UK the 2nd full week so 68k for all of Europe (April 1-7).


That leaves 24k last week for Europe (April 8-14).
