Sony's new PlayStation 3 video game system has gone from top dog to underdog in record time. Despite the buildup and hype around its arrival in November, the PS3 has been outsold so far — at a rate of almost 2-to-1 — by the Nintendo Wii.
In February, the Wii was the top-selling console video game system with an estimated 335,000 sold, outpacing the Microsoft Xbox 360 (228,000) and the PS3 (127,000), according to The NPD Group.
For Sony, that performance "is simply abysmal," says Newsweek's N'Gai Croal. "The PS3 is sucking wind right now. …. Price is a factor. Some of the negative buzz is a factor. Some of the FUD (fear, uncertainty and doubt) is a factor. And the lack of a large number of triple-A software titles is a factor."
Nintendo's $250 Wii, released the same week as the PS3 ($500-$600), has sold about 1.9 million so far, compared with 1.1 million PS3s.

I have a Wii.

My sister at home loves it, and so do I. I definitely wouldn't have guessed the lovechild of PS2 and the new gen Blu-Ray technology would not be able to live up to its hype. Blu-Ray's life is definitely in danger if the PS3 can't raise its sales
But then again, Sony made the MiniDisk. I know, cause I bought one of those pieces of shit.
