In a global sense, yes, but I'd wager they do more game sales in the US than Amazon does.

I was always under the impression that WalMart was the biggest video game retailer -> GameStop.

well it was kinda obvious the sales wouldn't be huge like the first PS3 "revision" as this was announced less than a week ago with zero advertising. Sony probably wants their current model to phase out before shipping larger quantities of the new PS3 slim. I expect some major PS3 deals to phase out the current PS3 slim

Except that Sony has specifically said that they will not be lowering the price on the older models.  If retailers do, that is one thing, but Sony is not discounting any of the current products.

I meant retailers...I'm sure stores like target,gamestop,best buy will have many deals to come; specaily black friday(well for NA)

Leo-J we are by far the biggest seller of Sony hardware in all of NA. This is well known

[...]"With the new ‘super-slim’ PS3 out today in the US, no one was really sure how the market would react considering the console actually costs more than the regular slim, but adds in more value. " [...]


I would really like to know what exactly Sony added in value. I hate such blanket statements. Can someone clarify?



Ongoing bet with think-man: He wins if MH4 releases in any shape or form on PSV in 2013, I win if it doesn't.

Walmart is the biggest but Amazon is bigger than GameStop .
