Thats horrible for both ps3 and 360. im surprised though at ps3 being so close to 360 considering the price difference. and look how close ps2 is to 360, wow.

Well let's hope those PSThree rumours are true! Sheesh.

I bought one of those 175k 360's in April!

Terrible sales all around. Recession has really hit hard.

Rike255 · 05-15-2009, 05:20 AM

PS2 price drop made a huge difference didn't it?

What is with the popularity of the DS?

Dunno, but even my mother has one and she's pretty much a technophobe!

How does the Wii continue to sell so much, surely everybody has one by now!

The DSi came out April 4th.

Terjyn · 05-15-2009, 12:46 PM

The DSi came out. Who cares? I can't figure out who the people are who continue to make the DS sell insanely well every single month.

Does the DSi finally make the DS not an eye-strain?

Sure, but who are they? I can't remember the last time I've seen someone shopping for a DS, or DS games. Those sections of stores are always deserted, yet every single month the thing seems to be flying off the shelves somewhere. Where? To who? It just amazes me.

I dont think 50K in sales makes them close. The PS3 did pretty badly compared to the 360

I see the numbers. I just dont think a 50,000 difference puts them close to each other. Nice way to spin the PS3 sales, but it was still very disappointing

That's like 12.5k/w it is a pretty small amount considering the gulf in price.

I dont need any spin! 360 is $199 its cheaper than the wii. you would expect it to sell more. the ps3 is more expensive than the 360 and it managed to come close in sales. 50,000 is not a big gap. i cant believe your trying to act like only the ps3 sales are dissapointing. i repeat, the both sold under 200k.
