360 price cut effect already waning in the states.....do MS have anything left to throw at the market to sustain a long term sales boost?

In the three weeks since the 360 price drop, it has outsold the PS3 in North America by 66% (week 1), 89% (week 2) and 63% (week 3). This doesn't look like a "waning" effect of the price drop; it looks like both 360 and PS3 sales are declining gradually, at about the same percentage rate.

 

wow nicee cherry picking. You fail to mention. 1st week = Japan + NA price cut 2nd week = Major game release. 3rd week = europe price drop.

Like I said last week 360 dropped again.... and we should all expect more drops next week. I say 5k in each region. So 10k Japan, 66k NA, and 60k Others. I got flamed last week for saying that the numbers weren't impressive. This week they are even worse....

Ummm... This thread is about the North American numbers. That's why, as I clearly stated in my post, my numbers are for North America only.

My point remains that North American sales of BOTH the 360 and the PS3 have been dropping over the past 3 weeks, at approximately the same recentage rate.

Hey look a bunch of people nervous at their 2009 ps3 claiming 2nd place predictions falling on the ground. Don't worry tho, there's always hope for 2010!

The numbers are low his week, but any parent watching the news this week is not running out o spend a bunch of cash on a new console. It's been economic doom and gloom for the past ten-14 days everywhere you go. That has to have an impact on people going shopping.

360+PS3 >> Wii is interesting to me though, especially with Wiis on the shelves much more often lately, at least by me.



Can't we all just get along and play our games in peace?

And worldwide for the week, PS3+360>>>Wii. That's gonna hurt for those people wanting to see the marketshare of Wii percentage increase.
