Okay, so the last two months, I've been reading a lot of posts about Ps3 doing good in Others, and that it might overtake Wii. I've actually believed this, and been content that my console might take the lead in an area.
For the 3rd Q of 2007, Ps3 wasn't doing to well. Wii had 50.1% Market share. Ps3 only had 23.6%, behind X360 which had 26.2%.
But in 4th Q, Ps3 strook back hard. Wii was down to 43.2%, only slightly ahead of Ps3 at 35.3%, which again anhilated X360 at a sole 21.4%.
Awesome news for the Ps3, expected news for the X360, and bad news for the Wii - it was now not a lot ahead of Ps3.
In Q1 '08, Wii dipped even further, down to 42.1%. Ps3 remained steady at 35.2%, and X360 saw a slight increase up to 22.6%.
Good for Ps3, it wasn't just because of the holiday it was better - the Ps3 increase was there to stay. Overtaking Wii wasn't far away.
But in Q2, things started to look a bit grimmer.
Wii had 47.7%, Ps3 dipped harshly down to 30.3%, and X360 stayed at 22%
And it gets worse.
Look at the last 2 months.
Wii is at 54.6%, Ps3 at half - 27.04%, and X360 at 18.5%.
For the last month, Wii is at 57.1%. Ps3 is at only 25.1%, and X360 at 17.8%
So instead of becomming the best selling in Others Ps3 has lost 1/3 of its relative market share, and is now smaller than half of Wii.
Awesome...
