Well, when comparing PS3 sales to PS2 sales there is one thing we always have to remember:
What made the PS2 so succesfull were not it´s huge weekly sales, it was the longelivity of the console. This is what the Playstation 3 is gonna lack in the end, probably. It has much more competition and isn´t the leading console. Therefore it probably won´t get that much support after year 3 or 4.
Situation:
IF PS2 would be launched in USA during March 2000, with shortages it would be selling next 10 month with 130k per month, with total 1300k.
Or it could be released in October 2000 and sell 1300k in three moths.
What the difference? Why months count bothers you, when weekly sales in this comparison begins after 45 weeks since first launch for BOTH consoles.
45 weeks is enough time. =)
BOTH consoles already have no shortages on their 2nd year of life. :)
Every 5 seconds on earth one child dies from hunger...
2009.04.30 - PS3 will OUTSELL x360 atleast by the middle of 2010. Japan+Europe > NA.
Gran Turismo 3 - 1,06 mln. in 3 weeks with around 4 mln. PS2 on the launch.
Gran Turismo 4 - 1,16 mln. with 18 mln. PS2 on the launch.
Final Fantasy X - around 2 mln. with 5 mln. PS2 on the launch.
Final Fantasy X-2 - 2.4 mln. with 12 mln. PS2 on the launch.
1.8 mln. PS3 today(2008.01.17) in Japan. Now(2009.04.30) 3.16 mln. PS3 were sold in Japan.
PS3 will reach 4 mln. in Japan by the end of 2009 with average weekly sales 25k.
PS3 may reach 5 mln. in Japan by the end of 2009 with average weekly sales 50k.
PS2 2001 vs PS3 2008 sales numbers =) + New games released in Japan by 2009 that passed 100k so far
20th week UPDATE:
PS2 May 20th - PS3 May 18th
USA - 72k <> USA - 53k
Japan - 27k <> Japan - 7k
Others - 59k <> Others - 104k
Total - 157k <> Total - 165k
Again no new releases.

Hey Crazzy, are you going to put up an edited version with the adjusted PS3 sales on? after all some of the past weeks in USA have been adjusted downward for PS3.

That is the updated one, there's a 180k difference now instead of 30k.
Surprised that the PS3 managed to win last week, it's been really slow.
Has crazzyman lowered the numbers after vgchart downwaded PS3's numbers?
| Rock_on_2008 said: Crazzyman is correct. Crazzy rocks. All your predictions are spot on. Keep up the good work. |
Like his GTAIV predictions, or when he said he couldn't wait for summer to hear the Wii fans cry when the Wii stopped selling.
I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.
NO NO, NO NO NO.

Crazzyman, how does -38 + 165 - 157 equal -181? Shouldn't it be -30k?
