Forums - Sales - PS3 EU Sales ADJUSTED...Now Ps3>100K This Week!!

bigjon on 28 March 2008

I was under the impression this boost was a easter holiday boost not a GTpro boost... It is kinda silly to predict that 50000 people would buy a PS3 for a racing Demo... I remember these kind of expectations for Japan(some people were saying it would open with 200k... only to do under 100k)

I think that GT will boost PS3 some, so these 100k should remain stable for next week. Then it will return to its Pre- holiday high.

But still, 100k is very impressive. I think you guys are just attributing it to the wrong source.

If you guys did not notice the Wii also say a big boost- what is coming out for Wii this week in others? right... nothing.



End of 2009 Predictions (Set, January 1st 2009)

Wii- 72 million   3rd Year Peak, better slate of releases

360- 37 million   Should trend down slightly after 3rd year peak

PS3- 29 million  Sales should pick up next year, 3rd year peak and price cut

So what were the numbers before? Was the PS3 in the ~70K-ish range? I don't remember exactly what it was. Somebody please? +30K increase?

It seems like the 360 was adjusted up, too. From 68K to almost 84K.
How about the Wii #s, are those still the same as before?

@ bigjon

Who said that? If anyone expected a 200k opener in Japan? Thats crazy.

However. We should see close to 400-500k in EU launch week.

@outla

You expect the PS3 to break 400-500k? thats insane!/ sarcasm

I expect GT5 P to suprise many people.
