Its weird the excuse for PS3 going up was also the excuse for it going down in NA

surely in Japan they would want to wait for the bundles

Who's the one who said with the MGS4 Japanese release, it would spur insane sales.

The guy with that facepalm (is it called that?) avatar. Faxnadu?

These numbers aren't MGS4 week.

However, they are abysmal for the PS3 and Xbox 360, as always.

Win Japan, win the console war. Them's the breaks.

I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

Apart from PSP, they all seem to be selling less than they did earlier in the year.

Maybe what happened to PSP will happen to PS3... PSP was gaining rapidly on DS, then eventually fell back, then did quite well later (now) So same thing could happen with 360/ps3. Only difference is, 360 won't have 70M sales 18 months from now...
