Forums - Sales - Portugal Sales Info (PS3 = Winning)

From over at NeoGAF, citing a local newspaper discussing their console wars: 


- Sony has sold 20,000 PS3's in Portugal since launch (2007-03-23). That's 20x PS1 and 4x PS2 for the same period. Lifetime sales for the PS2 are 750,000.
- According to Sony, PS2+PS3 accounts for a 92% quota of the portuguese home console market.
- Sony wants to sell a total of 75,000 PS3's until the end of 2007.
- Nintendo has sold 17,000 Wii's (10,000 in 2006, 7,000 in 2007). For comparison, lifetime sales for the Gamecube are 60,000-70,000.
- DS lifetime sales are 90,000.
- They speculate about a DVD-enabled Wii scheduled for September, picking up on Sonic Solutions' 2006 announcement.
- Microsoft won't release national sales numbers.

 Very good for Sony, as it seems to be one of the few markets still in Sony control. It seems that the Wii isn't doing too hot (7k units this year), and the 360 is a no-show.

Atleast there is one place in the world Sony can say that the PS3 is selling strong, hehe.

 



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

Sony also controls New Zealand last I heard. I think they have sold like 10k there.

Sony also controls Hullbridge, the village in England that I live in. Big it up to the Sony massive.



Next up: Kazakhstan

Very Nice!



Sony does not control new zealand. It was a PR announcement, they "Owned" 2007 in april... as you would expect.



Outside of the UK, Sony seems to have a good handle on European market. I wonder if we might see more software tailored to them (RTS games, for one) on the PS3 soon?

 well they had a really successful launch in NZ. For such a small county 7.5k is a large amount.

This is my neighbor Nushuktan Tulyiagby. He is pain in my assholes. I get a window from a glass, he must get a window from a glass. I get a step, he must get a step. I get a PS3, he cannot afford. Great success!

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )
