PS3 sales fall
April 5, 2007
Playstation 3 sales plumett according to the Guardian in the 2nd week of launch.
The PS3 is late to market - a golden rule of commerce. Xbox 360 got there first.
Another point is the price - it’s must expensive than the Nintendo Wii which has it’s small piece of the market cornered with the likes of Mario.
But more importantly, it’s only a wee bit better than the old PS2, visually anyway. The games are the same old gameplay. PCs show they are best at doing the high-quality rendered stuff and if you don’t want one of them, Xbox 360 works out as a PC alternative.
Are Sony suffering from big organisation syndrome? EG where they moved too slowly too late.
Blu-ray within the PS3 is it’s saving grace, but there are very few HD movies available.
Stay tuned for the PS3 progress….
