Here, the most intersting words in the article:

Les ventes de la console ont en effet été multipliées par près de dix la semaine passée en France, avec 37.000 exemplaires vendus dont 12.000 lors du dernier week-end, selon les informations recueillies ce lundi par latribune.fr. Elle se place ainsi "loin devant les autres consoles de salon," indique-t-on chez Sony France.

Au pays du soleil Levant, la PlayStation 3 a enregistré la meilleure semaine commerciale de son histoire, avec 150.832 exemplaires écoulés selon les chiffres publiés par le cabinet d'études japonais Enterbrain.

Numéro un des ventes au Japon, la PS3 a réalisé la même performance au Royaume-Uni, marché traditionnellement favorable aux consoles de Sony. Là aussi les chiffres parlent d'eux mêmes: une progression de 999% d'une semaine sur l'autre, selon le cabinet CharTrack. Pour la première fois depuis sa semaine de lancement sur le sol britannique en 2007, la PS3 se hisse à la première place des consoles les plus vendues. Derrière, la Xbox 360, dont le prix a également baissé, affiche une progression de 29% de ses ventes sur la période mais s'est trois fois moins bien vendue que sa rivale.

Spain and Italy. But all of Europe is strong for Sony (not just the Playstation brand).

no longer true

i doubt sony is the biggest selling brand in any consumer elctronic product in europe now.


I didn't say they were the biggest, but they are still strong. I should think they are first for Blu Ray players, only second to Samsung for TV's.



Yes it's true, italy is a Sony country, you can find everywhere someone who thinks still that ps3 is the most sold console of this gen, or tell you that you must buy that just because of the BR player that the other 2 consoles don't have. I mean, it's true, but is a Sony fanboys's country, and is speaking someone who lives there :)



CURRENTLY PLAYING: Xenoblade (Wii), Super mario 3D land (3DS), Guild Wars (PC)

Congrats. Seems that the Slim is being adopted at a frantic pace. I wonder how it'll fare next week - If this is a rush, or a trend.



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
