PS2 outsells PS3 in April
Posted: Thu May 21, 2009 12:59 pm
Bad news for Sony, as NPD’s latest April sales reveal that Sony’s PS3 only sold 127,000 units, the lowest since before the release of the 40 GB model in October 2007. To make matters worse, the age-old PS2 outsold the PS3 for the month, selling over 172,000 units.
Granted, the PS2 just received a price cut to $100, which has fueled sales, and might suggest that the PS3 is in desperate need of a price cut as well. If that’s not reason enough for a price cut, the NPD numbers show that the cheaper PS3 SKU outsold the expensive one by 9 to 1.
