They sold 165,000 of the 220,000 in the UK for the first weekend. Not too shabby for a March launch with a huge supply.

And that one store represents the whole of Europe. The truth is overall all the stores together have sold alot of PS3s. Even in Australia where everyone bashed its launch day over the weekend it outsold its preorders of 20,000. So everytime I walk to my local best buy and see a mountain of 360s, I guess that means they are not selling anywere...huh??

Well put. I love it when silly kids equate store supply with system failure.

Well it was only record setting because of the Supply, Wii sold out and is still largely sold out, even after millions have been sold

Considering that it's not the Christmas season, over 400 pounds and its large supply of consoles, I'd say that it was a success as far as the UK is concerned.
