They spent the whole gen advertising downloading movies, music classics games, dlc and day 1 digital. What the hell is somebody going to do with a 12 gb system? I'm glad it bombed.


So those are the only things a ps3 can do because sony advertised it? They can stream movies and tv shows. Stream nhl and other sports. Play ps3 games and download dlc and arcade ganes considering those are small.

there goes the $199 myth... what a surprise.


Not really, youve just got to be realistic and look at the situation. The PS3 has been on the market for almost 7 Years now and the PS4 is releasing in only 2 Months. A cut to $199 at this stage of its life, with nothing releasing alongside said cut, was never going to do wonders. A $199 PS3, 2 Months before the PS4 releases for $399, isnt going to be a very attractive purchase.

A cut to $199 during the Holiday of 2011 or maybe even 2012 though? Would have had an impact.

Pikmin 3 is overtracked by at least 38k.
That means Tales of Xillia is overtracked by 17k+ and Dragon's Crown is overtracked by 47k+.



vita overtracked as well then cuz it boosted great with DC release? WiiU overtracked as well maybe?

Apparently, Fire Emblem Awakening is now the best selling FE game in the West.

This is great news.

One would of thought that Pikmin 3 would of sold much better :(
Mario & Luigi sales are great though.

"According to Nintendo, 190,000 copies of Mario & Luigi: Dream Team were sold in August (combining physical and digital sales), while Pikmin 3 sold 115,000. New Super Luigi U has sold 120,000 combined units across physical and digital."


So are those pikmin sales retail only? They specified in the other 2 but not on pikmin....
