| | | PS3 Vs GameCube Sales
At current rate, PS3 may sell less than GameCube | PS3 News | GamePro.com
It would seem the roles have definitely been reversed. Luckily for Nintendo, they were able to stay partially afloat with their list of 1st party games and loyal fanbase. The GC also had a lower price point on its side.
The PS3? Let's face it, most of the big psone and ps2 games were not Sony made, and it certainly doesn't have price on its side. It did have a fan base, but that's crumbling quickly. What do you think? |

| | | that and the GC made money on every sale, the same cannot be said for the PS3, by any stretch of the imagination.

| | | With their attitude, Sony, as brilliant as their technology is, will never dominate.
I say brilliant because some will be offended otherwise.

| | | Nintendo's share prices are at an all time high, and nintendo is projecting to increase their forcasted profits for the year. The stock is expected to keep rising for a LONG time. If I had some extra money lying around I'd pick up a couple shares, make some money.

Although I'll be using most of them to buy me a Macbook Pro in a couple of months. |
