Forums - Sales Discussion - How do you feel about the wii and ps3's increases in Japan?

daactualfact on 07 February 2008

They are both good and whatnot. But, they both seem somewhat disappointing. (but wii to a lesser extent, since it's doing better than last year.) but ps3 should have hit past 40,000 or 50,000. wii should have at least 120,000! someone undertracked the consoles in your opinion? (famitsu might be wrong.)



Damn things have changed since 2009 began. Here are my new visions for the end of the generation.

 

Wii: 135 mil

Ps3: 85 mil

360: 60 mil

Lol, you think your right and Famitsu/Media Create are wrong?... Whaha...

 

Guess what: PS3's new Roof in Japan is 40k.

ps3 seemed about right to me, i really thought brawl would push wii sales higher though, like 130-140k at least. oh well.

Wii sales would have been 140k if there were that many to be bought... it is supply contrained...

As long as for the majority of weeks the Wii outsells the other two consoles I'm not worried what it's weekly sales are.

 Correct. Still, in 08... Supply-constrained console! Quite impressive Nintendo, demand is high!

M / C hardware will be in less than 3 hours. Strangely, the DS and PSP were left out of Shinobi. It does seem low across the board for me on all consoles.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

It is strange that the PS3 numbers just have a slight increase when 3 new games release and it is strange for sure when one game sells guite good.






smbu2000 on 07 February 2008

Yeah, I definitely thought the 360 would easily sell +200K consoles last week!(in Japan!) The numbers are obviously wrong!!!!!

PS3 couldn't have sold more than 400 total consoles(yes, 400 its not a typo!) for the week and the Wii easily had sales 666,666 consoles in Japan. These #s are totally WRONG!!!!!!!!11







/sarcasm ;-p
ps. quit whining about the #s already...
