PS3 Sales Stagnate; DS, PSP, 360, and Wii All Going Up

11/27/08

Media Create Sales: 11/17 - 11/24 (Hardware)

Japan - The PS3 and PS2 were the only platforms that didn't receive a significant boost this week as the end-of-year climb finally begins. The DS and PSP platforms are both up nearly 20k units, the 360 almost doubled last week's effort from 8k to 15.5k, and the Wii is up 10k units from the previous week.

Defying the weekly gains for every other platform, the PS3 sold only 17.4k units this week, exactly (for our purposes) what it sold last week. As we look for continued increases in hardware next week, will the PS3 be along for the ride?




Hardware
DS+ 107,423
PSP 61,226
WII 35,298
PS3 17,436
360 15,474
PS2 5,281

 

So....the PS3 is one of the few consoles that DOESN'T see a decent rise in sales.......yet the 360 nearly doubled it's sales from last week? HOWEVER the PS3 STILL outsold Microsoft's idiot - machine??? LMFAO!!!

Also to the braindead morons who tried comparing sales of the US and EU regions let me remind you of something, the ONLY reason the 360 is selling more than 2,000 units a week in those continents is due to the recent price drop (Which ALSO took place in Japan....to no avail). As both Sony and Microsoft have proved in the past price - cuts are a temporary solution, anyone who thinks otherwise has severe mental disorders i'm afraid.

The 360 is the cheapest of all the consoles worldwide and has ALREADY gone back to last place in Japan??? EPIC FAIL, ROFL!!!

My bet is that the 360 resumes standard last place in US/EU starting Jan/Feb 09 and THEN what you morons??? Will they lower the price to ten bucks? LOL!!! They'll HAVE to if they expect anyone to buy a faulty piece of RROD'ing garbage with no games.
