Forums - Sales - What % of PS3 Slim Sales are Phat PS3 owners REBUYING PS3's?!

I was having this discussion with soriku & seece.

I want to know how many of you on VGC SOLD your phat & got a PS3 slim as an exchange? (Please say NO to this....why would you?)

How of you PLAN to trade in your PHAT/sell it for a SLIM in the "Future"?

Also what % of the PS3 slim sales so far do you think are "Phat PS3 owners REBUYING a PS3 because the slim is out"

I'll say 30% in Japan

10% in EU & NA

_____

THATS for the first week

After first week rebuys should be at a minimum

______

SOme of you may think the question is stupid, but some people on VGC BELIEVE Most of the sales were from rebuys, some believe A LOT were from rebuys

If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

It doesn't really matter...



i have the phat and im def. going to be picking up the slim soon enough, i prefer the 120gb and the fact thats its smaller....plus my ps3 is getting old



Despite the fact that I only have a 20 gig hard drive, why the hell would I give up my PS2 backwards compatibility? The hard drive is easily replaceable, but I haven't had any space issues yet.

I know 2 of my friends are rebuying the ps3 slim, but anecdotal evidence is completely useless.

It's really a shot in the dark, i'd say 1st week 40% 2nd week 20% 3rd week 5% 4th week



-4%



I have the old one. I have no plans on getting a slim one.



"And yet, I've realized that maybe living a "decent" life means you won't ever have a "good" life."

 

I really don't see much reason for there to be more than a small percentage of people trading fat for slim. It's not like any new features were added. I know Gamestop has a deal where you get $150 for your fat towards a slim, but that's not really that great of an incentive IMO.

I'm getting a slim but for my younger brother. I don't see the point of buying another one if the one I have works fine.
