ichi Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 i've just been up town and in my local argos (kings lynn, norfolk, uk) had the following stock quantities:nintendo wii: 0 xbox360: 8 playstation 3: 42 Here it's like: wii: plenty of stock 360: plenty of stock ps3: I guess there's plenty of stock, but I can't tell for sure as I don't know anyone willing to pay 600? for a console. I only know one person that bought a 360, months ago, and he just walked into the store and picked one. No waiting or anything. Almost the same for the wii: just a 1 week wait at launch time, without preordering or anything.

PiracyX Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 I don't believe how they can say they shifted 165,000 in the first weekend when they are all over the place to buy! My local GAME, Virgin, Woolworths, Comet and Currys all have plenty of stock and have done since launch day.

I call the product managers at each of those stores and ask them to send me a detailed report about their current stock but that won't be very nice of me don't you think? :blush: :shifty: :whistle: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/551080-playstation-3-hardware-sales-plummet-82-per-cent/page/3/#findComment-588459587 Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadFerIt Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 Guys this thread is about U.K. sales, so of course you can't use the sales in North America to judge the sales in Europe. It would be nice if we could, but it doesn't work that way, different countries different results. And I'll repeat this yet again, it still hasn't been a month yet.. Even if the PS3 had massive success one week, and then failed the next, since when are the sales charts weekly? It's monthly, and even then I wouldn't make any assumptions on one month of sales. We simply have no idea how the PS3 will do 5-6 months from now. It could be a great success, and do wonderfully, and it could also wind up having the lowest sales in the current cycle of consoles.. You just don't know.. I mean come on, making assumptions like this are only beneficial to biased fanboys (pro PS3 or anti PS3), and you guys aren't like that.. Only a select few are on Neowin (which is why I love this forum!) :D.
