I reckon they will be close, but just off, like 3.98mil (close enough, i say)



40k - japan.
40k - usa.
40k - others.
+-5k between regions. =)
but should make 120k or 4.01mln. :)

2009.04.30 - PS3 will OUTSELL x360 atleast by the middle of 2010. Japan+Europe > NA.


Gran Turismo 3 - 1,06 mln. in 3 weeks with around 4 mln. PS2 on the launch.
Gran Turismo 4 - 1,16 mln. with 18 mln. PS2 on the launch.

Final Fantasy X - around 2 mln. with 5 mln. PS2 on the launch.
Final Fantasy X-2 - 2.4 mln. with 12 mln. PS2 on the launch.

 

1.8 mln. PS3 today(2008.01.17) in Japan. Now(2009.04.30) 3.16 mln. PS3 were sold in Japan.
PS3 will reach 4 mln. in Japan by the end of 2009 with average weekly sales 25k.

PS3 may reach 5 mln. in Japan by the end of 2009 with average weekly sales 50k.
PS2 2001 vs PS3 2008 sales numbers =) + New games released in Japan by 2009 that passed 100k so far

Numbers for Japan are in vgchartz now. 37.5k sold in Japan. 70.77k needed between Europe and USA for 4 million...

It's definitely doable, esepcially after seeing the jp numbers at what they are. I think that the US will still be right at or just a hair above 40k, and others should be in the neighborhood of 30k or more. (Keep in mind that it's very difficult to track retailer sales from the "others" and even though it may not be counted here on vgchartz, they should hit that number. )

Get close, but I think it will just miss out. Really depends on Japan - I am expecting 25k-30k. If not, following week for sure!

From a while at least, the PS3 should be significantly be outselling the 360 on a weekly basis.

Guess I was right - but only just ;) Did sell a lot more in Japan than I thought...

Even though it increased in sales World wide to near 110k in the week, it didnt hit 4million by just a hair  but I expect it to be about 4.08-4.11m next week which is good news for the sony playstation three.

Close but not enough. 5459 units short.

1 131 135 + 1 738 147 + 1 065 259 = 3 994 541

Really solid week.  




What about the european numbers ?

Are they already released ? I dont have seen them ...

Time to Work !

My psychic powers tell me the PS3 will cross the 4 million mark with next week's numbers =P

Seriously though, the Japanese numbers this week were fantastic for PS3 and definitely a lot higher than I expected.

Just a side note, but with the way the numbers in the database are always being refined and reevaluated it is entirely possible that down the road the numbers could show this week to be the week the PS3 crossed the 4m mark. Right now it is very close, so it may be to early to for sure say it hasn't crossed.
