MCHufnagel Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Tom, Your title is misleading. It makes one think that the PS3 has outsold the Wii and not just broken the launch sales record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomasholzer Posted March 27, 2007 Author Share Posted March 27, 2007 doesn't matter, i wanna see some German sales figures, anyone? UK Resistance is tongue-in-cheek, not entirely to be taken seriously Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UK Resistance is tongue-in-cheek, not entirely to be taken seriously I could tell that they are a satire site, but there is always some truth in satire. That's what makes satire all the more humorous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra Kai Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Sony had to give away a ton of 42" Bravia HDTV's to 'encourage' those sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FastRobPlus Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 So a Bravia weighs about 46lbs without stand, therefore 100 weigh 4,600lbs. So technically, they gave away 2 tons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheese007 Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 (edited) ? Either everyone in Europe is BSing, or something is off about those figures. Also, it has supposedly sold 550,000 already. Edited March 27, 2007 by Cheese007 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess Ragan Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Tom, Your title is misleading. What, are you kidding me? It's an outright fabrication. "In UK PS3 outsold Wii already." Uh, no it hasn't. If he had said "PS3 launch surpasses Wii launch," that would have been fine, but there's a thread about this on the site already. JR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomasholzer Posted March 28, 2007 Author Share Posted March 28, 2007 (edited) Don't worry, i knew what i meant.

liveinabin Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 I'm having a hard time believing those day 1 sales figures. There are a LOT of PS3's about in stores here. Added to that, I haven't seen anyone buying/owning/wanting one. Not exactly scientific evidence, I know, but I just smell a rat here.

chrisbid Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 http://gamesindustry.biz/content_page.php?aid=23977 it was simply a matter of sony being able to have enough supply to meet the initial rush Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liveinabin Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 That's true. Nintendo's day 1 sales were something like 105,000 but that's only because they only had 105,000 to sell. Given the still pervading scarcity of Wii's in any stores in UK, they could have sold 1 million+ if they'd only had the units ready. Though, of course, higher sales of one doesn't mean lesser sales of the other. PS3 and Wii have a pretty different market. Also, just to give balance to the Sony claims, sales of PS3 hardware have dropped 80% by the second week of release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
