The Next-Gen Wars

Post by w00fd06 »

I've found some conflicting sales on the internet recently about the sales of the 3 next-gen consoles. I used to use vgchartz.com, but then their numbers started changing dramatically, so I don't go there anymore.

If anyone can find a site that states some fairly reliable sales, please notify me.

I've been there a few times, but the only thing i don't like is their methodology, but the numbers do seem to be fairly accurate.

The Wii is kicking ass. Almost identical sales numbers to the 360 but been in stores a year less.

I don't understand the fascination with the Wii, but I guess a lot of people are happy with their purchase. Microsoft will have to get Japan on board if they want to remain on top in sales.

Ya, the numbers do seem pretty accurate from what I've been hearing. The Wii is making a strong showing since introduction, and people are tired of getting ripped off paying Microsoft for Xbox Live. I know that I am.

Lots of co-workers have been asking me about the three, all ask about the Wii first. They see it as being the cheaper and more healthy of the three. The big thing is the price. Its almost half the cost of the PS3 and ~100 less than the 360.
