What was wrong with Kowenicki's thread? :(

PS3 on fire (still...).

ok

But that still isn't an official pricecut: Vita Wifi + 4GB memcard + Starterkit = 249€ or Vita Wifi + 4GB memcard + Uncharted = 259€. That are the official prices in the (german) Sony Online store. Non if it being lower than the initial price of 249€ (ok both bundles have a lot more value than the initial one, but as long as the entry price isn't lower I don't consider it a price cut).

You always will find hardware cheaper on some retailers in Europe. Until one hour ago I could have got a new Wii U Premium for 229€ and usually you can get one for ~270€. And afaik(!) the (somewhat unofficial) suggested retail price is still at 379€ for that one (yes; not the 349€ we have seen in most shops).

Usually an official cut has a much bigger effect on the sales.

PS3 and 3DS suffer for the same reason.  They can't replicate their predecessors success.

Wow, just wow.
Except for dieappledie, where are all the vita haters and doom spreaders? Back next week maybe if sales drop off a bit more in Japan?
Last weeks thread had a lot more people saying this week would be terrible if i'm correct...

Pretty brilliant week for sony ^^ Though the overall sales decrease from last years hardware in the same week does show that the Ps4/Nextbox can't come soon enough.

Wii U is really failing. It will be losing to freaking psp soon. :D

This was my first time... no congrats or anything

Congrats!  First time huh....was it awkward?  It's okay if it was. :P
