The PS3 continues its downwards trend quite rapidly, not even selling a third anymore of what the Wii sells :laugh:

The Psp seems to sharing the same fate now, selling only a third of what the DS Lite sells as well.

MS still needs to come up with a proper slogan and campaign for the X360 in Japan.

Exposing the fact that Xbox360 - 2,910 might nullify your theory. The Playstation 3 is definitely not selling as well as the Wii (hell, the Wii is pure dominance at it's finest against any console)... but let's not forget the 360's numbers over there shall we? Do honestly think just a mere slogan would do the trick? :p

Do the Japanese eat DS's for breakfast?!

+1 :laugh:

I'm surprised to see the 360 go up to nearly 4,000. I expected the PS3 sales to drop some (as well as the 360), but the PS2 seems to be selling very well for an 8-year-old console. I just wish I invested in Nintendo about a year or so ago on the Nikkei exchange.

Well, the DSL did drop under 100,000, I don't remember the last time I saw it under that. The Wii fell a bit also, under 60,000 but still going strong. The PS3 is still in it's stedy decline, though that gundam game did help it a bit, once that faded it right back to the 16,000s. 360 seems to be getting a little boost, maybe from all the news of games like DMC4, AC4 and so on not being PS3 exclusive anymore. I think when you just wanna play these games and don't care about the name of the system you play them on, then price is the only factor. With the 360 being cheaper a small but stedy % of buyers pick it up over the expensive PS3.

Weird, the only 3 gaming devices that got a raise where the PSP, PS3 and more shockingly the Game Boy Micro. The rest went down.

What the hell happened this week?

Umm.. The Xbox 360 went up.

    • Most AI-powered mainframe migration vendors expected to fail by 2030, Gartner warns

      Most AI-powered mainframe migration vendors expected to fail by 2030, Gartner warns by Paul Hill Credit: Pexels You may have read that many companies still run code written in ancient programming languages like COBOL and pay a handsome sum for those who can maintain that code. Well, it looks like this area of the tech world could be the scene of an AI bubble. It turns out that there are mainframe exit vendors, helping companies move their legacy mainframe systems to modern cloud environments or servers such as Microsoft Azure and AWS, using generative AI tooling. Unfortunately, 75% of these vendors are now expected to pivot or cease operations as market realities take hold by 2030. Alessandro Galimberti from Gartner said: Some of the companies in the mainframe exit market are IBM, 21CS, BMC, Broadcom, Rocket Software, DXC, GTSG, and Kyndryl. The reasons some of these firms are expected to quit the market are a reset of market expectations and a decline in demand for one-size-fits-all migration solutions. The reset in expectations is likely to be driven by cost overruns and threats to business, and the potential occurrence of critical failures within businesses as a result of bad transition implementations. These insights from Gartner are pretty interesting because it’s a specific area of the market where doubt is being cast on generative AI. Many people have cast doubt on whether AI companies will successfully justify the massive amounts spent on GenAI to date, and this data from Gartner suggests the road could be rocky for GenAI.

      Heaven forbid they lose pennies from their Trillions! Like always, the consumer pays the most. Why is Tim Cooks even talking.....shouldn't he be packing up his office??

      If you have the budget...! Some solo or indies just want to either learn or start their game and aren't in a capacity to pay salaries or to contractors... Get real.
