That's because the WII is sick CP. Especially as a replacement for board games when you have people over.

 

 

Those numbers are a little shocking. Hopefully Sony will pull their heads out and get a little more competitive.

The wii is pretty fun, my buddy has it and when ever i go over to his place. We always play wii tennis, haven't really tried anything else.

If you add up all 3 sonys not doing so bad ;)

 

No, i think Sony would sell a lot more ps3's if they lowed the price a little more. But if you do add all three together, they aren't doing to bad at all.

I agree that the PS3 would sell much better if it were priced lower. I don't quite know who Sony had in mind when they created the initial PS3. Sometimes it seems as if they didn't really generate a target audience for their unit like the other two companies did, but rather just tried to create this super-machine that technically outclasses the other companies' capabilities...but in doing so, rolled out a grossly overpriced system that certainly doesn't seem to justify itself with the majority of America (or the world for that matter) in our current global-economical climate and crisis.

Maybe bad timing, maybe bad marketing.

I'm still a die-hard Sony PS backer...have been since the PS2, the one I had for about 5-6 years that operated without fail and the system that I discovered Socom on. I don't think the PS3 will go anywhere but I do hope that valuable lessons are learned by Sony from this if there is to be a PS4....though it's hard to imagine that a company would put up a follow-up to their previous system with a dramatically reduced price. That could be construed by the public as Sony either putting out an inferior product to its predecessor OR that they're conceding that they made a mistake in the design of the PS3 and much of what it could do (and what you paid for it) was ultimately wasted and unneeded to begin with...and I don't see Sony willingly walking into that marketing trap.

Nice- Only problem with the data might be that it does not list what model for the amount sold.

If you add all of the sony products together. Then yes, they have to be leading the way.

 

193,000+190,000+136,000= 519,000

 

That barely beats the DS.
