Preliminary: Sony missed 2M shipment target in '06

Jan 10th 2007 11:38AM (Joystiq)
@Fred T

For Microsoft, shipped does mean sold. If they are shipping out units to a retailer, the retailer has to buy those units in order to resell them to consumers. So Microsoft did actually sell 10.4 million consoles.

I'm so insanely suprised that the Wii has sold as many consoles as they have. The only good game that they currently have released is Zelda, and the units are still flying off the shelves! It has to be that 250 dollar price point.

@Shagi

How you can you say "You guys are fanboys" and "PS3 rules" in the same comment??? Fucking Hypocrit

Microsoft: HD-DVD might be "next Betamax," switch to Blu-ray still possible

Save your money bro. I think that digital distribution will end up being the chosen path.

I would have to disagree with you. Maybe you are just an extremely lucky person. I live in Oklahoma, and I'm certain that our demand for gaming isn't near as high as New York. I was able to pick up a PS2 4 months after launch, and a 360 5 months after launch. I searched my town and the nearest major city close by. I almost had to buy them on ebay!!

Oh well. I would assume that due to the initiall install base of the ps2, the demand for the ps3 would end up being the same way. My friend was at Best Buy last night picking of the Wire season 2 and counted 19 ps3's. He checked the boxes to make sure that there were actually units inside them. They weren't just display boxes.

I don't feel the need to make any points. I haven't ran out and bought into any one format. Therefore, I'm not going to defend one format or the other.

I do feel the need to make fun of these rabbid techy fanboys that think they know absolutely everything one format and the future.

Meet Ana, the Xbox 360 hardware scaler

"Well, Xploder fixes that for a number of games, including Final Fantasy XII. I think this shows that software upscaling, at least for PS2, is a real possibility."

See, there's the problem. This should have never been an issue from the day they released the ps3. Now consumers are having to find alternate methods to be happy with their purchase.

Oh yea.....@ the kid.......you're a fucking idiot.

@ Dukhat

Looks like someone doesn't want to have a useless PS3 in the next couple of years.

@The Kid

Seriously bro.....stop posting. All of your comments are that of a typical sony fanbot.

"MS and the 360 suck!!! Boo Ray is awesome!!! Yay!!!"

Get a magazine or read a book you fuckin loser

PlayStation 3 is a decent bargain, as a Blu-ray player

Blue Ray is technically less superior to that of HD-DVD. I hope that it fails like all of the other failed formats made my Sony. Unfortunately, there are so many blind idiots out there that will buy into it.....only because of the success of the PS2 name. People here the name Sony and run with it. Such a shame really....
