Matt Richtel from 'Bits' wrote an interesting article about the 3 next-gen console sales war. And how Sony has fallen from grace in terms of NPD sales numbers putting the PS3 in third place, far behind the Wii and Xbox 360. Check this outtake below:
"Dave Karraker, the Sony spokesman who predicted the PS3 would overtake the 360, told me that: (1) He was only wrong by a bit, and (2) NPD doesn’t provide an exact count but estimates some portions of the market and (3) No, he would not care to make a prediction about August’s sales figures."
Funny how Karraker was all about making predictions earlier this year, and that he was only off by a bit (nearly 6 million units off). Well with Halo 3 coming out soon, Sony better have another price drop in the works to offset that bold prediction.
