I'm not sure but I think the PS3 might outsell the 360 in Japan this time .

Your not sure?

On topic:

PS3 HAS 3 NEW MILLION SELLERS FOR NEXT WEEK

Heavenly sword : 0.96M

GT5 Prolaugue: 0.91M

Ratchet and clank: Future tools of destruction: 0.98M

My sims, and rayman are about to break a million on the wii as well.


 I am pretty sure that HS and R&C reached 1m ages ago, its just they are not tracked in others cause they are outside the top 50


Heavenly Sword is at 67, and Ratchet and Clank is at 69 in others.  Heavenly Sword doesn't have a chance at a million by next week.  Ratchet should make it next week, though the numbers are odd.  It shows 980k on the page, but 970k on the WW chart.

Cherrypicking isn't that, its leaving out information.

Its like saying that in a game of 1 on 1 in basketball, Michael Jordan scored 200 points, and a teenager scored 15 points.

A cherrypick would be saying, "The kid scored 15 points in a professional baskteball games!"

Its misleading, see?

It's funny, when the Wii posts big numbers, we have so many fanboys saying over tracked. But when sales are dismally low, not hardly a peep.

Its funny when the PS3 posts huge numbers, you wii boys always post "Nintendoz domnationszzz hhaahaha".


I don't think I understand. Could you please elaborate on that statement.


If I must, When the PS3 see's an amazing week, you guys always post " Nintendo domination as always", which is trolling.

Just away to combat fishy joe's statement.

Also vgchartz is known for overtracking the wii, its just the sales are hard to track, thats a good reason why people say it may be overtracked.


Ah, ok.

 

The reason that happense is because everytime the PS3 has a good showing, no matter what the reason, several particular Sony fanboys make posts about how the PS3 is on track to be the new dominant console, and this week is just the first step. Then, many people come in and burst their bubble, of all fanboyages, with the news that, desite strong sales, aren't as good as the Wii sales.

 

That isn't most adult response for all parties involved.

 

However, when you say the Wii is undertracked, and the PS3 is overtracked, you are implying that you don't give VGChartz the benefit of the doubt. You say that historically the PS3 has been undertracked and the Wii overtracked, but that's just not true. In fact, Nintendo claims the Wii shipped(and sold, since supply contraint was strong at that point, all shipped Wii's were sold) 20 mill by last december, but VGChartz had the Wii a little lower than that, so over the long run it was slightly undertracked. If anything, VGChartz hardware numbers are dead on.

 

So, you tend to be basing your undertracked and overtracked suggestions on your own belief that the PS3 should sell more than it does, and the Wii should sell less, and not off any factual evidence, or even anecdotal evidence.

 

That is attempting to discredit the site, and second guess ioi, who actually put in a lot of time and work to come to his conclusions, unlike you.

 

That, is far worse than Marioboys teasing Kratosboys, with "Nintendomination" taunts. 


What sony fan other than MARS says " This is just the beginning, PS3 will dominate the wii!" on these forums? No one.

 As for descrediting the site, vgchartz is not 100%, and never has been, thats all I have to say.

I mean c'mon, even if th PS3 sold only 10 k less than the Wii in others, it's still getting it's butt handed to itself in the other regions, Japan especially. Your arguements that we don't take into account PS3's good week is ased on the fact that overall it still is losing by a pretty darn big amount.

Not to mention that the Wii has had a phenomenal 1st quarter and continues to have a good streak on to the 2nd while the ps3 only now has shown a fang or two.

 The PS3 was doomed 3/4 of a year ago, and would not sell even 6m (or so we were told...)

Basically, the PS3's sales have improved massively, and it has beaten the 360 by 700k in the first 3 months of this year, seling about 2.75m, which is massively over what it sold in the equivalent time last year, so that is why the PS3 is doing well

but i have never seen people put that when the ps3 had a good week.

Never heard it, Leo-J you need evidence before accusing someone. If you have it than show us.

 I believe the comment would classify as "completely ignorant of Japanese market"

 How about this? "360 has as much chance to beat PS3 this week as DS has in beating PSP"
