Forums - Sales - unbelievable, no PlayStation 3 Slim@amazon

dbot on 25 August 2009

@Cgi - You are wasting your time with this one. If there weren't any bad people in the world, we wouldn't have any good people either.

I think the Amazon shortages were expected and are not unbelievable. It is obvious that there is pent up demand for the PS3 @ the 299 price point. September's numbers will be very interesting.



Thanks for the input, Jeff.

PS3 Slim is now second place on Amazon.ca... and not sold out.

My god, why is everybody saying 'reasonable' ?

A. Logical! Clearly competition has nothing to do with Sony dropping the price. I wonder why the Wii hasn't had a price drop?


B. Those are the best examples you could find of bashing?

The first one was actual curiosity. I'm shocked that Crackdown didn't make a profit having sold 1.5 million copies and not being a particularly outstanding game. I would naturally assume more money is put into PS3 1st party games and several of those titles have much of their sales from bundles.

The second one is me simply pointing out being sold out doesn't always equate to outstanding sales. Although I'm rather positive PS3 will be the best selling console in the coming weeks.

Just because I'm not being optimistic doesn't mean I'm bashing.

Well, it could have been just a misunderstanding. You just have to understand that the content of your posting gives off the impression of a PS basher...


Whoa, whoa, whoa! You did an edit! I guess you weren't comfortable saying it was merely a misunderstanding.

To be fair you're clearly reading my post through fanboy goggles.

For example when I make a comment like this... "The PS3 had to drop the price due to competition."

Your fanboy goggles translates my message and sends this to your brain... "The PS3 is garbage! The 'insert console here' is much better!"

I'm not bashing anything about the PS3. I'm only talking about sales and what motivates them to do the things they do.

Actually, he has. It takes a while to get that "unbiased member" impression- I certainly don't have it.
