Those poor baby seals don't get a rest these days...



Signature goes here!

With the Holiday season creeping up ever so frequently, the question on everyone’s mind is who is going to come out on top in sales between the three current generation consoles.  All three consoles have implemented price cuts recently to try to jumpstart the industry in a lagging worldwide economy.  It seems to have worked, especially for the newly remodeled Playstation 3.  This console managed to sell over 1.2 million units in its first 3 weeks of being on the market, more than it managed to sell all of last quarter combined!

 

 

Really?  What a strange blog post.  I don't think any but a tiny handful of folks will be suprised when Wii ends up being the top selling console this holiday season.  The only thing that will beat it is the DSi.

It's good that the PS3 is selling so well though.  The more PS3/Xbox360/Wii/DS systems that sell, the better it is for me.

why are they struggling with demand if it only sold slighlty more than the 360 in the states last week? are they struggling with demand for the 360 too?

sounds more like a supply issue than a demand issue following the massive first week.

Oh no no kowenicki.

It's demand, sir.



It definately hasn't been in a problem here in NA sales are of course up but they definately are not selling ahead of demand.



they are selling ahead of demand here in canada. Walmart and EB(Gamestop) cannot keep it stocked. that being said, outselling the 360 on any week in NA is a massive accomplishment for the PS3, especially considering its had no new software to speak of since its launch.



That list of nintendo stuff is frighting...



Now PS3 is 15th or something on Amazon. I think thats about where the Fat used to be.

Doesn't look good for PS3 sales.
