North American numbers please. I don't think the PS3 is passing the xbox unfortunately, but I'd like to see those numbers if they're available.
psn id: gingo.... this will be the continuous trend for the rest of the year in japan unless another massive title comes out for the wii but i think most japanese hav a wii and a ds by now
die-romantic: Every machine loves dust o_O
The PS3 especially loves dust. Or is it that dust loves the PS3? I don't know, but I find myself cleaning the thing more often than anything else in the house. (Or maybe I just "baby" the PS3?)
ps3 sales bite, but wow, that psp is somethin else.
I know you guys want to keep the news positive but we need numbers for NA and EU. Just because Sony might not be leading in these regions doesn't make them unimportant.
It will be interesting to see how things will turnout for the xbox360 in june when Ninja Gaiden 2 is released.I am sure this is a strategic move by MS so that the release of MGS4 won't have any effect on the difference difference in sales between ps3 and xbox360.Let's wait and see.
everybody is waiting for a ps3 bundle. i think that is why it isnt selling that well at the moment
My wii is dusty. My PS3 is running its engines all day with GT5Prologue, Metal Gear Beta, and soon GTfrigginA 4
Seems like a slow week in Japan...
