I don't know if PlayStation 3 is "doomed," per se. But Sony definitely has no dominating voice in the industry, anymore. Whereas the industry used to follow Sony, I don't think anybody's gonna give a shit, anymore.

neoGAF will always care about Sony. Even until Hirai crashes his Ferrari and Harrison gets tied up with the East European Mafia.

The meltdowns are coming fast.

I'm a bit curious why Nintendo increased their supply so much with no really huge Wii games out this month.

Strikers was fairly big for the month, though it came at the end of the month.

So, let me get this straight: the 360 outsold the PS3, with the bad press about the warranty announcement, with rumors flying about a pricedrop, without a single notable game release... and the PS3 had a $100 pricedrop fire sale, with the 5 Blu-ray movies free deal.

Sony is screwed in America.

As for Nintendo... OMG. Reggie is wiping his ass with $100 bills on a solid gold toilet at this very moment.

Ok, so PS3 is now globally outselling Xbox360, the japan sales more than make up for the difference in USA now and also PS3 is beginning to edge ahead in Europe too. I dont see how this is bad news.

People use the excuse Sony dropped the price by$100 and still couldn't out sell the 360? Well, what do you expect, the Ps3 is till $100+ more expensive than the 360 no? So the numbers seems pretty fair.

Again, I can't believe people are saying Sony is done in NA. Wii won it if you play that way.

Both the Ps3 and 360 are fighting for 2nd place and that can change.
Click to expand...

The 360 is 4.3 million ahead of the PS3 in the US. The PS3 will also never have the price advantage, the best it can hope for is being the same price as the 360 in time. It's over, dude.

Keep telling yourself that's the only thing going on here.



Thanks!

Do you have the GBA and/or PS2 LTDs?
Click to expand...

Price...is everything.

a $129 console outselling a $300/$400 console? Whodathunk.

A $300 console outselling a $500 console? Whodathunk.

A $129 handheld outselling a $169 handheld? Whodathunk

Wastes hours checking old Famitsu software data, but that's why we love him.
A thought re: Wii's insane sales. Perhaps along with increased shipments, the new online retailers sell more Wii's in reality than estimated? I'm just trying to wrap my head around a near 30K a week increase in a month without a significant release.

Oh how I luvs me some spinnin :lol

The 360 sold 170k units in a month BEFORE the price drop and without a heavy-hitter like Bioshock.

But you knew that already, right? The PS3 and 360 are in completely different universes right now, and no one can state otherwise. Sony desperately needed to come out ahead THIS MONTH while holding all the cards.
Click to expand...

Show me the spin. Do you think 360 will make a huge jump next month? Beat the Wii? Beat PS2? I honestly don't. Sorry.

360 had a heavy hitter. NCAA Football. It was first this month. In Aug, Madden is the heavy hitter, not Bioshock (sorry) btw. Wii is the console that's in a completely different universe right now. I don't even LIKE the goddamned thing either. But these numbers in the dead of summer? Forget it.

Sony is more screwed (at least they can spin PS2/PSP numbers) than MS right now but MS sure isn't in a happy place.

As I said in the Matt C. sales thread, I think it's over from here on out for PS3...at least when it comes to outselling either of its competitors on a monthly basis in NA. NA is Wii60 country officially now.

360 price drop, holidays coming, how much can nintendo possibly supply?, etc.

over/under: number of months before wii is in the lead in america? put me down for 8. at the end of march npd, we will be welcoming our new overlords.

Lefein is crazy and has been getting crazier at each NPD. He's the only reason I go to the ps3forums anymore. I'm waiting on the inevitable breakdown followed by a note from his mom that's he's no longer playing those videogames.
