That's it? 5 weeks recorded sales with a price cut and new system relaunch only got them over the Wii by 30k?

Looks like the tsunami of sales everyone hyped here turned out to be someone jumping in the kiddy pool.

1. The wii also had a price cut

2. This is america, where the PS3 is weakest. (They also are pretty weak in Japan, but at least they're in 2nd place)

3. Troll.

1- 8 days price cuts vs 5 weeks.

2- Do you see the problem here? One system had a price cut and relaunch of there system for an entire month was barely able to get over one that had a price cut for EIGHT DAYS. How is this suddenly improving the PS3's position in the US when its obvious now its not going to change?

3- Troll trolling troll. See I can scapegoat too.

You know where the last price cuts got PS3? Not above Wii. This was the first time in history.

You may use the fact that it was a redesign, I can see that, but those other times Wii never had a price cut to counter the PS3 one. Clearly Wii is losing momentum.

Don't forget that North America has been Wii's strongest market since launch. For PS3, Europe has outpaced it's counterpart sales, even with a launch half a year later.

LoL. How quickly people forget the numbers of total sales on the front page.

Bet between Slimbeast and Arius Dion about Wii sales 2009:

If the Wii sells less than 20 million in 2009 (as defined by VGC sales between week ending 3d Jan 2009 to week ending 4th Jan 2010) Slimebeast wins and get to control Arius Dion's sig for 1 month.

If the Wii sells more than 20 million in 2009 (as defined above) Arius Dion wins and gets to control Slimebeast's sig for 1 month.
