43K for PS3 this week... looks like most of you overestimate the power of RE6 and super slim in Japan.

I said that sequels don't sell systems and I was right. Some people here didn't want to believe me.

If the Slim model wasn't this week, PS3 would've sold 20-30k, as I predicted before the Slim announcement.

I'd amend your statement to "sequels to games already on the console, do not move hardware".

Because that first release of a game (despite being a sequel to a well known franchise or otherwise) will still provide a large boost. There are, of course, many exceptions to this rule.



"We'll toss the dice however they fall,
And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

That's what I meant. Thank you. English is not my first language, so maybe sometimes it's difficult to express exactly what I think.

70k is way to high. Its to late in the game for software to make a huge difference, like a pricecut would. I guess 35k

Only 7k off



All bow to me the VGChartz current reigning 3DS prediction champion 

 Bet with tbone51: Pokeon X & pokemon Y will not sell more than 8 million in 2013

 2009 daveJ said: The wii will not break the 50% marketshare barrier it will go below the 40% marketshare barrier though in the future. VGChartz members: Impossible, youre an idiot that knows nothing about sales

No worries man. I thought we agreed.


@ pezus


As I said, there are many exceptions (Atelier Rorona -> Atelier Totori), but the majority fit the rule.
