Whos fault is it that SONY supplied the market with more units than XBOX/WII? Don't gloat on the what if's and respect what the PS3 did for a launch. And not even on a holiday.

Nah , most playstation fans are enjoying their ps2s still and they have their eye on the ps3 waiting for a certain couple of games or a price drop or when they can get the money.

lmao, hardly everyone that wants it got it already. Regardless of a sales drop in Europe. Some are waiting for games, some are waiting for price drops. The games are coming out this year, and more than likely there will be either a 100-150 price drop this year, it'd be smart for sony.

Yeah, it's not that no one wants one, but it's that no one wants it desperately.

I have a ps2 but I will not get a ps3 unless they prove it far superior to other consoles.  At this rate, I'll most likely get an xbox 360 with the possible price drop coming this fall.

Hmmm, no.

I want a PS3 but b/c of it's price in conjunction with it's lack of worthy library I decided to hold off. I know a few gamers on my team I work with that have the same attitude.

It's not that we don't want it, it's that we don't want it enough yet.

$100 is probably the max...Do you have any idea how much Sony would lose in a $150 price drop? Before, it used to be increments of $20 price drops..$150 is way too much.

That's not true. I want a PS3 and I don't have one yet. Not getting one till late this year. 

There's still a few PS2 games I need to play.

In any case, most consumers wait 2 years before purchasing a next gen console, as evident by the sales spike in both the PS1 and PS2 two years after launch.

Everyone who wanted the 360 got one already just look at the sales they still cant pass the  10 million mark..lol....And  for the  wii's   the sales is dropping..i been seeing lots of wii's here at my stores..And i am sure when PS3 gets MGS4, Final Fantasy Versus, Heavenly Sword, Warkhawk, Ratchet and Clank,Uncharted Drakes Fortune, Ninja Gaiden Sigma, White Knight Story, LittleBigPlanet and etc comes out ..It goin to push PS3 sales.. Games play a  big part in selling systems..so stop bein a fanboy yourself.. and who isnt suprise that sales decreasing in the 2nd week it also happened to the 360 and wii too..

False. I don't have one yet and I am not in any hurry yet. I haven't even started God of War II yet. I am waiting until some more games to release like The Drakness , Ninja Gaiden Sigma , and Lair . I also want Resistance and possibly Motorstorm. I kind of want to jump in and get started a little early and work on these games before I get overwhelmed towards the end of the year with other games.

No they didn't. Nintendo has clearly out-shipped sony by a wide margin.

I want a PS3... but there are only two words that will get me to buy one, no matter how many AAA's or First Party games it has... and those two words are: Price Drop. As soon as it sheds at LEAST $100.00 from it's current price, I'm there.

Supplied more?  Heh...no.  They made their goal of 6 million shipped by the end of March.  Yet...the Wii has sold just over 6 million in that same amount of time.  They supplied the same as Nintendo, but have NOT been selling well.

I don't think sony made the 6 million shipped mark. It's more like 3.5 or 4.

   Yep, the bovines are back in dumb excuse mode. Let's face it, sure a week after launch you can expext a decrease in sales, but 82%? I guess it didn't ake Europe long to figure out why the $600 Weightstation is sitting on store shelves worldwide.

  Bu bu bu wait until (insert PS3 game) comes out, ROFL like MS and nintendo aren't going to release games during the same timeframe.

I know a ton of people who want one but they just don't have the money.  Most of them said they were going to get one after they graduate in June.  I guess not everyone who wants a PS3 already has one.

I do have friends that claim they will buy one when either MGS4 or Socom 4 come out. That being said I think of the 16 consoles pre-ordered at the Gamestop I was at, at least half ended up on EBAY. I camped out and was second on line. The guy who eventually was behind me and third, originally asked us if GS was taking orders on the "Gamestation 2".

I want one, and I don't got one. That may change soon, though.

This topic doesn't take into account whether one is saving up or not. I find that it glosses over some extremely obvious logical steps, and is wholly inadequate as a source of information.

Nah , most playstation fans are enjoying their ps2s still and they have their eye on the ps3 waiting for a certain couple of games or a price drop or when they can get the money.

One of those games must of been Motorstorm, lots of people once talked about it, including many PS3 fanboys on SW, now its a flop.

7.9 is not going to stop people from buying it or playing it. It is not near the top of my list but I will still probably play it.

The only thing preventing me from getting one is the price and the lack of decent games right now.
