> For example Skyrim sold 2.6 million in 2011 on the xbox and only a million on the ps3.

You have to consider total software sales, not individual titles. And for the PS3 you have to consider its impact on blu-ray movie sales (which aren't in those charts).

Blu-ray also launched in 2006 and the PS3 was one of the most useful players available because it could do more than just play movies.



I only saw the blu-ray support as being a consolle seller on forums where most people are from America.

I think it wasnt a big deal in the rest of the world. Then Microsoft console focused on "doning more that just play" and flopped worldwide.
