The NPD Group just released it’s game console sales totals for April and it didn’t look good for the Playstation 3. The high-end console limped into sixth place, beat out by it’s 9 year old predecessor the Playstaion 2. The PS2 price cut is probably the biggest contributor to the 50% increase in sales, leading me to believe that the PS3 may be next in line for a price cut. Sony may have dipped there toe in the water to see how the market would react, hopefully now they take the jump and knock a few dollars off the hefty price tag of the Playstation 3. And with E3 right around the corner it seems like a viable option.
Here are th sales figures for April:
