European Ps3 Launch

[declaration]

Figure are in for the launch of the PS3 in the UK. According to what ive read, although there is still plentiful stock of PS3s 165,000 were sold on the first day or first weekend I cant remember which is correct. It outsold the 360's launch by nearly 100,000 units and beat the wii by 64,000 although I reckon if there were more Wiis to go around then the Wii launch figures would be higher.

Yeah, but 360s were sold out at launch too.

It will be interesting to see how things go in the next few weeks for Sony. I wonder how many people are willing to pay £425 and haven't already done so. Why would they not buy at launch seeing as though it wasn't exactly difficult to do so?

I guess people might be waiting until payday or for certain games before making a PS3 sized hole in their wallets.
