PS3 IS A SALES DISASTER IN AMERICA
And that’s not just tonight’s wank fantasy – it’s a SOLID GOLD FACT:
January US sales totals:
Wii: 436,000
X360: 294,000
PS3: 244,000
And don’t go saying it’s stock issues – Sony’s got 25 million of the things clogging up store aisles out there right now. Six million sold by the end of March? Get real, dickwads.
Plus PS3 is still selling a ridiculously rubbish 20k a week in Japan. WELL DONE, WORLD! It’s now more important than ever that Europe doesn’t embarrass itself by bailing out Sony’s horrendous, half-finished console.

we can only pray that the good people of europe dont buy this piece of ugly looking, badly constructed, non rumbling, force feed, dust collecting fcuking idea stealing under delivered over hyped expersive hunk of chuck norris SHIT!….

It will sell shit loads in Europe. We have the privilege of waiting the longest and paying the most.

Im trading in my Xbox 360 for a PS3!
Games and Hi-Def movies in one machine , I can’t wait.

Lets face it, all the scallies will make up for the shortfall in sales alone in the UK. :(

“Production snags with the player created supply problems during the holiday shopping season, forcing Sony to concede market share to Wii.”

Dear Sony.
Please fall in a well and die.
Sincerely,
Civilization.

To be honest I’m not optimistic about the sales being too bad here. People here would buy it if Sony shat in a dust-collecting box and stuck their logo on it. Oh wait, they did.

Sony didn’t have shipping problems at all. They said themselves that they were getting 100k systems a week into stores, unfortunately less than half of them were sold in this five week period!

how long will it be before the “At the present time we will take only one order per customer” disappears from the site?
February 21st, 2007 on 8:27 pm
PS3 has sold more in the same time period than the PS2 had by this point… I’m sure Sony must be worried if the PS3 ends up being as big a failure as that was!!
If you don’t like it – that’s cool 4 you – it’s a choice.
February 21st, 2007 on 9:43 pm
Matt A – Stop listening to Sony’s lies! They may have shipped more but we all know that ‘sold’ actually means ‘shipped’ which actually means ‘made’.

So Matt A actually *is* a retard.
Mystery solved.

matty – how much does sony pay you? it’s not a choice. it’s a piece of sony shit. what is cool 4 me is that the ps3 is failing and those playstation diehards, is buying 360’s and Wii’s.

I won’t buy it.. no way!
If Sony CE gets bankrupt, I’ll be the last who cares. Sony BMG sucks for their stupid CD copy protections, Sony Vaio invents exploding notebook batteries… yes, that’s the road to success!
Sony should make Hi-Fi equipment like they did before.

I suspect Matt A is just metaphorically pulling our collective leg to see our replies.
Because, I mean, surely nobody can be that moronic, surely?
February 22nd, 2007 on 11:50 am
Who cares? Money talks and the market is speaking. Matt A will either be proved a visionary (i.e. King of Pikies) or a Sony whipping boy. It’s all in the numbers.
February 22nd, 2007 on 4:11 pm
Bloody hell Jawa, that last post was
a bit too sensible for my liking!
Side note: My word verification had ‘pub’ in it.
What a grand idea!

easy folks… Saphion – u got me, but Fiddy, I’d watch your back if I were you – you don’t want to be calling people you don’t know retarrddssss…
unless you wanna squeal boy…

I think the 360 could win the console war in America; easily!
I put money on the Wii being a bit of a failure 3years from now. Hardware will sell, software? I think sales will drop and drop.
The PS3 could be a major winner once it gets in it’s stride and Sony sack the pricing people.
In the west I’d go bet:
1. 360
2. PS3
3. Wii

Wow. It’s such a shock that the only person here with anything remotely interesting or intelligent to say would be harassed and vilified. Seriously.. “How much is Sony paying you?” Only the kind of moron whose best thought-out argument against a company is “because they’re shit” would accept money to spread this kind of excrement and affront to the English language.
This site used to be entertaining. Pro-Sega, anti-everything else. I’m with you. Now it’s devolved into mindless “Sony sucksx LOLZ!!” rhetoric.
Which might be slightly enjoyable, if everyone else on the web wasn’t already doing it. And better.
Been and done, there and that.
P.S. How much is Microsoft paying you?

So Matt what you’re saying is that next time I solve a mystery I should walk away backwards, or perhaps skirting the walls?
Essential tips for life, I like it :)

“It’s such a shock that the only person here with anything remotely interesting or intelligent to say would be harassed and vilified.”
Eh?
Interesting or intelligent?
Umm… you might want to re-read the thread.
Especially as he admitted he was winding everyone up to see the responses.

the trick is not to read the comments, then it’s more fun!

Sony has 25 million PS3’s shipped?
Wow that’s amazing. How come they’re only saying that there’s 2 million shipped and reports have 1.88 million sold?
vgcharts.org
That means there are 120,000 units scattered across North America clogging up aisles in this tiny little excuse for a continent.
Amazon seems to show that they sell out within a day everytime they get stock in. Best Buy – sold out. Future Shop – sold out. Costco – sold out.
Is someone a little pissed at SONY for something completely different and now just trying to make up shite to self-stimulate?
The PS3 will sell.

Is Bill Laswell one of those guys who got caught running that really shockingly shit Sony PSP fansite last year?
February 28th, 2007 on 5:53 pm
No, he’s a wicked producer, did all the dub mixes for the Bob Marley Ambient Excusrions Into Dub release.
Just picked his name out of thin air.
