PS3 has flown past the 3 million mark!

Upon the European launch, we wrote up an article about the "before" sales of the PlayStation 3 and let you guys guess where the numbers would land, given another week. Well, we had a very professional brain fart (in the form of multiple tests, group presentations, and an annoying large paper) and decided to let the "after" post come... today. What did we find? Good stuff.

At least, according to VGCharts, the PlayStation 3 has surpassed the 3 million mark. What's neat, too, according to the same chart, is that the PS3 has sold more in Europe in the course of two weekends than it has sold in Japan in four months! We've got more good PS3 sales news as the day progresses, but it almost seems like a slow news day right now. When do you guys think the PS3 will break 4 million, now that things will slow down?

360 has been out for how long and it has that few? ps3 and wii are almost there and they just released

in a few months ps3 will be switching spots with the 360.

the psp sold more than the 3 consoles put together

and people say the psp isnt selling well

also it doesnt look like japan likes the 360

MS has never done well in Japan. The xbox and 360 pretty much sold and still sell terribly in that region. I dont even think anyone buys any regular xbox's over there anymore at all.
