So by your logic would it be safe to say that the PS3 is dead without Japan and this is the end of the PS3?



Didn't you make a thread like this last year?

What a weak argument. I mean a case could have been potentially made here but not with such little effort as this.

Right now, the gaming industry is "relaxing" after the huge holiday season it had in 2008. I mean it's have a more normal/average time of the year that we just aren't used to considering 2008. 360 has definitely slowed down but so has everything else.

Until now, I say we can't really make any calls. But with June about to roll around with a bunch of huge games, Wii Motion Plus, and E3 the industry will start to do a little better comparatively and then we'll see where everyone is at.

" LOGIC"

 

No such word should be uttered in this thread since it lacks so much of it.

As you can see, without NA, x360 can`t even outsell PS3, it`s selling only on par.

Lets exclude the 3rd biggest country in the world.

This thread is just absurd...truly absurd.

First off, the logic is proposterous. Why? because although without NA the 360 would have a tougher time true...but where is NA gonna go??? If it were to dissappear or whatever you want to call it we'd have much much bigger issues on our hand than poor 360 sales being crippled. Secondly, Twestern hit the nail on the head. You can make the same argument against ps3 with japan. Worst of all, in the current sales chart you cite, it plays to ps3's strength and 360's much greater weakness and yet ps3 is still down by 8k??? Yea...great point.

You need to worry more about microsoft ever finding a way to at least be competitive in Japan and then they'd really blow things outta the water because calling 360s' Japan situation crippling is an understatement at best.



Don`t you people see a PRICE DIFFERENCE???
Or, you`re just blind?

x360 cost MUCH cheaper, than PS3, and yet struggling to outsell PS3.

Do you people think, that PS3 at 299$/€ would sell as BAD as x360 today???



Every 5 seconds on earth one child dies from hunger...

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