Forums - Sales - World Wide Sales UP!!...PS3 > 360 by 74K , WiiDS Sales EXPLODE!

The 100% increas in Other for the 360 and Wii are seasonal, maybe the PS3 did not go up as much because of shortages. Sony had shipped ww at 27 milo a few weeks ago, and now vgc shows that's exactly how much they have sold to consumers as of last week, so until we hear word from Sony that they passed 30 milo shipped then we should expect small increases to continue. And if this is true then FF13 launch won't be as big as we would hope.

360 numbers are suprisingly high, i guess the low price point will work wonders for them during he main periods.

i still stick to my orig prediction that 360 may edge the ps3 in xmas sales due to the arcade.

thats what cost sony the most this gen, they was always to high priced.

 

Higher price while being equivalent as far as gaming use.

That was the killer.


partially false : PS3 is still more expensive but it is selling on par or more than the 360, right now.

so even without being at the same price, the PS3 possess more value, whatever it is from the brand name, the free online or the BR player ...

My guess, and please emphasize the "guess" part, is that the PS3 jumped the gun a bot with its price drop and slim release and as a result, was already ahead of the curve thereby explaining that its seasonal increases are smaller than the 360 and the Wii's.

PS3 selling well and how... Wii is slower than last year but still THE FORCE to reckon with.. 360 is reeling from pressure in "others".. Time for ms add a basic HDD to the arcade and Wifi to elite if they want ppl to keep interested...

I'm looking fwd to picking up my slim next week...



Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is absurd.

owner of : atari 2600, commodore 64, NES,gameboy,atari lynx, genesis, saturn,neogeo,DC,PS2,GC,X360, Wii

5 THINGS I'd like to see before i knock out:

a. a AAA 3D sonic title

b. a nintendo developed game that has a "M rating"

c. redesgined PS controller

d. SEGA back in the console business

e. M$ out of the OS business

Dejavu...  Wii > 360/PS3   again (even without the 2's)  Assassin 2, MOD 2, LFD 2.

Wii/DS > than all the rest...  WOW!!!!

No, it's true.

We're talking about what doomed the console and what doomed it is that until very recently it cost and arm and a leg while delivering aproximately the same gaming entertainment. The premium people are willing to pay for all that fancy stuff is between 50 and 100 bucks.

you are right
it is also because the wii was price cutted recently and because the MW2 helped a bit more the 360 than the PS3 (remember the bundle).

also, it is obvious that holidays is the moment were u buy a big expensive stuff like a PS3 but it is also the moment were mothers want to buy a console for their kids and between PS3/360/Wii, they will rather buy a 360 or a wii rather than a PS3

At the end, considering we are in FULL crisis (believe me it is not gonna stop right now), 360 will be, again, more helped during the holidays because of the price.



Time to Work !

on here it doesnt matter what ps3 does, its always doomed, if it aint doomed cause of its sales then it doomed cause its losing money for sony, or its doomed when natal comes out, if its still not doomed then, then what? oh a secret planet microsoft will release on the 360 will sky rocket sales past the wii and the 360 will outsell the ps2!!
