who would have thought that the PS3 would be able to double Wii sales in Japan, ten days after SMG released.

Next week the PS3 will also outsell the Wii, and possible the week after that.

DW6 will hit 500k by the endo of the year on both platforms, 430k PS3, 70K XBOX 360.

 


 Afraid not, in about two weeks Wii Fit comes, PS3 will be back below Wii by then



 

Predictions:Sales of Wii Fit will surpass the combined sales of the Grand Theft Auto franchiseLifetime sales of Wii will surpass the combined sales of the entire Playstation family of consoles by 12/31/2015 Wii hardware sales will surpass the total hardware sales of the PS2 by 12/31/2010 Wii will have 50% marketshare or more by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)

tHE PS3 STILL COST more than the wii..

This freaking arguement is OFFICIALY outdated due to it being 360's price for the first year.


....................;;;;

PS3 costs more than Wii so why you are talking about PS3 price = X360 price....

Drunk?

The PS3 JUST got to the Xbox's price the first year, and its selling better than the Xbox did its first year as well.

The 40Gb seems to have caused a big splash as well in NA .After the last data it sold 75K units the first week (was launched the 2 and the week ended the 4 ) and 100K the second week .So seems as the PS3 is back on track .

It is really funny how people like Avanishi gets mad because of potential PS3 leadership this and next week. C'mon dude it's only one week. Did you see PS3 owners crying over X360 success last week? Why do you find in such meaningless thing (+/- few k) a source of ultimate humilation?

 No i'm not mad, i'm just a man who needs proof, PS3 fans sound like christians talking about some god that they have no proof of, excuse me if I need empirical evidence of some sort


 

Please don't refer to Christians as the only ones who believe in God. That would be most religions. And there is plenty of proof of the supernatural. Go look at a tree and tell me that happend by chance. Same with DNA and if you want to go even farther, I suggest you pickup the book "A Case For The Creator". It Opened my eyes. Anyway back to can the PS3 beat the Wii in Japan. The short answer is no in the long run. Yes for a few weeks. The Wii seems to be losing steam but Wii fit will bring those sales back up. Also, Mario is a better game than R&C and will have a longer life. I'm hoping for the best with the PS3. It is my favorite console of this generation.

PS3 finally outsells the Wii in Japan.....

Will it outsell it in November overall?

No. It only outsold the Wii by 20k in Japan ONLY but whatever the Wii loses in Japan it can make up in the US and/or Europe.

 


You never go to bed without learning something .In Sorikus wonderful world 31K are ONLY 20K .
