LOL PS3 sales in Japan last week increased almost 15,000% over the week before
Of course, they only sold 1500 units the week before, since everyone knew the price drop was coming.

^ i'd take that with a grain of salt until it's official annoucement by sony
if they wanted a Q4 release they would have it ready by holiday season (late nov/early dec)

Hey guys just wondering but does anyone here know why i can't find a female RCA to female 3.5mm adapter? I want to hook the output from a PS3 to my Logitech computer speakers but I can't find an adapter anywhere, surely someone else here is doing this without having to use a bunch of gender changers. Or is there a reason why this shouldn't be done (impedance? voltage levels?)

ninja gaiden 2 demo was alright. I unlocked the mission co-op at the end, and I'm guessing that will be able to do 2 player online/offline co-op mission on the real game? Anyone else tried the demo? Is it worth getting you think? I got too much games on my mind right now.

this is supposedly a leaked document by SEGA about their meeting with SCEA
it was posted on blu-ray.com and the thread was deleted and the original leaked document webpage ( ftp://segapr.segaamerica.com/SEGA_Ne...Notes%20BH.doc) has also been deleted
so im gonna share it here Quote:
SCEA Meeting Aug 5th Notes
Aug 6 2009 – DRAFT FOR COMMENTS
Objectives of Meeting
Dyer agreed to regular quarterly meetings with SOA
Sony PS3
SCEA reiterated plans to sell 13 million PS3s this year
Big announcement back half of year they can’t talk about (potentially price cut of PS3 to reach hardware goals)
SCEA commented on indexing between PS3 and 360 SKUs, should be around 2:1 to garner most favorable treatment.
Motion Controller
Spring 2010 launch (March in JP)
No bundle/pricing details yet, should come Sept 1
Plan on selling 4-5MM units WW
SCEA agreed to provide a list of Sega IP that would work well with the motion controller, Virtua Tennis was an example
Motion Controller support allows easy way to differentiate PS3 SKU
Other differentiation opportunities include PSP/PS3 interoperability – think of features that would make users want to buy both PS3 and PSP SKUs.
Alpha Protocol
Michael Foster, product evaluator, said AP felt barely RPG. Initial level too challenging for players. “Mass Effect felt more RPG.”
Review notes sent to John Merlino a few weeks prior. After meeting Gerald mentioned AP is a high priority for his team.
Planet 51
Sell in of PS3 SKU – SCEA noted that other movie titles on PS3 had underperformed as well (inc. Transformers) this cycle.
Dyer suggests contacting Susan at Walmart and asking what she wants in the pack to sell this SKU (movie tix etc)
Other possibilities are Hybrid movie disc (BD 25 or 50 with Game and Movie on same disc).
Bayonetta
Collectors edition with Bayonetta Action Figure
Novo recommended launching PSN demo around Xmas based off a Jan 5th Ship date with 2-3 week run out to launch.
3-4 weeks is usually ideal demo timing with fresh content every week leading up to launch (trailers, insider video about PG heritage, video blogs).
Vancouver 2010
HOME, Olympic destination would garner a lot of positive attention from SCEA
Should be doing same with Bayonetta, Marvel etc. Easy to launch in all territories.
HOME merchandizing opportunities (clothes etc).
Sonic Racing
Open to DLC to differentiate PS3 SKU – not ratchet and clank but other characters
maybe characters from Rare or Fable universes
Yakuza
Could put Japanese games directly on PSN for download in a special Japanese Import section (pricing $9.99 to $39.99 for full game).
Might need to localize menus at least with subtitles.
SCEA interested in helping on MKTG side if they can have period of exclusivity.
AVP
Another great HOME candidate
AVP avatars
Hybrid BD disc with movie
Iron Man 2
Great candidate for HOME space – explore Tony Stark’s lab etc.
Should have one for Marvel in general.
PSU2
Could do bundle at GameStop with PSP 30-35K units on UMD, Go, or both.
Valkyria 1937
Could bundle with PSP as well.
Vanquish and Aliens: CM
Opportunity for PS3/PSP interoperability (see Eidos Batman, Army of Two, Assassin’s Creed for good examples).
If we offer that SCEA would be really interested in having us at their booth next E3.
Thor
SCEA would like a look at the code soon.
Sonic Anniversary
Could put out collectors edition with all old sonic games on one BD disc.
“Best of Sonic” for around $99.
SCEA would love PSN exclusive power ups/different game modes (like Castlevania’s flip it over/backwards) PS2 emulator for PS3 (confidential)
SCEA wants to sell all PS2 titles on PSN (GTA Vice City/Sonic/etc)
For co Marketing money show PS3 controller on TV ads – similar to EA Madden Spots, NCAA, etc…
London Olympics
Perfect opportunity for Motion Controller integration. DC Digital Titles
If we provide a list of DC titles SCEA will let us know which ones they’re interested in having exclusively.
If we give them a long period of exclusivity they’ll give us more marketing support.
PSP Titles
For SKU differentiation it’s best to offer features that are slightly different from PS3 version.
Titles that are coming up on PSP are Assassin’s Creed II, GTA China Wars, Resident Evil, Little Big Planet – all massive franchises.
SCEA has a specific PSP deck which they can send up with their hardware director for a chat.

Sony unveiled (pdf) officially the first 250GB Sony PS3 Slim Bundle. At the TGS 2009 Sony announced the rumored higher capacity PS3 Slim officially for the Japanese market.
Japanese Sony fans can get a so called PS3 FINAL FANTASY XIII LIGHTNING EDITION bundle pack (CEJH-10008) that will be available on December 17, 2009.
This bundle includes a ceramic white 250GB PS3 Slim with FF design, FF XIII Game, Wireless Controller, and cables.
The price for Sony PS3 FINAL FANTASY XIII LIGHTNING EDITION bundle pack CEJH-10008 is 41,600 Yen (~$460). Play-Asia is maybe offering the FF XIII 250GB PS3 Slim for fans outside of Japan.
