PS3 – Can you hear me?
Posted by Don Hass in entertainment, gaming, hardware, sony, techAnyone notice the high demand for PS3 has turned into a high demand for dusting at your local electronic boutique?
It would appear that if you walk into any retail store that sales game consoles you will find plenty of all three consoles (x360, wii, ps3). Ask what people are demanding after the holiday rush? Wii first, x360 next and then maybe a PS3 here and there. I have now heard from numerous store department managers that say they leave the PS3 in the back to leave more shelf space for Wii stock and then x360. It seems Sony isn’t feeling the love.
It seems the even with Sony touting their 1 million units “shipped” to the US quite of lot of that stock is not sold, but actually sitting around collecting dust.
Heck I had two department managers (1 big chain retailer and 1 big electronic retailer) both same similar things. People are actually returning “unopened” PS3 systems for credit and getting WiiX combo. (Wii + X360). Ouch, that has to hurt. Heck even if Sony somehow post good sales figures for Dec.. I would hate to see how much of that holds true in Jan when people when and got there 600 credits for other consoles.
Tendo and MS should have a solid alliance in that they both can share the living room / game room. Sony you just have soiled too many people. Come on, look at your glorious PSP, beautiful, but UMD. OUCH. What there is maybe 2 games for it since it release in March 2005?
