Yea, but most of the PS3 games on COMG only sell 100-200,000 units. I have a feeling that the number of PS3 games releasing will significantly reduce in 2014, but then again PSP is still sticking around. So who knows.

PS4 needs to go to USA first, they need a lead to pick up and fast so people don't "Buy a one because their friends have one." If Sony gets a quick lead in USA, that lead could stick, and really help overall sales.

Europe will favor PS4 regardless, same with Japan, it's USA and Canada that Sony has to fight for (Actually I think most Canadians own PS3's anyway, so mostly just USA).

I agree, they must be agressive on USA. 

Also, i think that the PS3 will still see a lot of ninche titles on japan in 2014 and continue selling well after PS4 release, cuz they probably have more than 1 pricecut to do on PS3. 

When do you think they will give the PS3 a price cut?

My PS3 broke a few years back, been livin on 360/Wii since. However I want to buy a new PS3. I remember last Boxing Day they sold them for $200, and looking just now, all retailers have cut the price of the GTAV PS3 bundle to $270. I'm very tempted to get the GTA IV Bundle, but at the same time, I only have a few 360 games left to beat, the system is starting to go, I kinda want to finish them first and get a PS3 on likely a better Black Friday deal.

Not waiting any longer then Black Friday though, it's been too long, and The Last of Us/GT6/Tales of Xillia look too good.

first day sellthrough

[3DS] One Piece: Romance Dawn - Bouken no Yoake - 30% (100k initial shipment)
[3DS] Nekketsu Kouha Kunio-Kun SP: Rantou Kyousoukyoku - 30%
[3DS] Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger: Game de Kaburincho!! < 10%
[WIU] Yakuza 1 & 2 HD for Wii U < 10%

 

Yikes at that bottom one.  And I presume from the fact that he didn't list it that Fruit of Grisaia for Vita did even worse than that.

Yikes at everything, and probably less at the bottom one. Sincerely, who was expecting anything from that one.

Late this year, probably. Maybe they will announce at gamescon, i dont know. But the PS3 are still selling a lot and there are some great games coming for it this year. 
If im not wrong, PS2 pricecut to $130 came after PS3 release. PS3 is still selling at $250, pretty safe to say that late this year it will drop to $200 and late 2014 or 2015 to $150.

Pre-orders open the 10th, so for numbers you should wait until this day is finished. So, on sunday 11th.

Anyone have the points the older Pokemon games got the day pre-orders opened? Just curious.

That's my bet too, but Black Friday, systems usually see an extra $50-80 off here in Canada. So maybe I'll be able to pick up a PS3 bundled with something like GT6 or GTA V for $200. That's what I'm hoping on.

Then....I'll spend at least another $200 on 3 years of games I missed. GT6/GTA V (whichever isn't bundled with my system), Tales of Xillia, The Last of Us, Uncharted 3, InFamous 2, and maybe a couple more. Going to get Atelier Totori and No More Heroes on eBay beforehand though, and I'll probably everything else I want in 2014.

I don't think 30k for a remake of a One Piece game is particularly bad.  And besides, I didn't know what the middle two games were :P

Yakuza was more of a shock not because I was expecting big numbers (I wasn't); but because I thought they'd be sensible with the shipments.  It's either an astronomically low number (i.e. 15k shipment?  ~ 1.5k) or they massively overshipped, which I also wouldn't have expected.
