The only thing that could be related to is the lack of any big franchise releases in the last 12-18 months. Both of those regions tend to get swayed by big releases more than price. In the U.S., price is king. It's the reason Sony is getting hammered so badly in this region while performing much better in the other two regions.


Comparing the PS3 and the Wii is like comparing apples and oranges. The Wii sold at record rates to help saturate their markets in those regions. The PS3 hasn't sold well enough to even come close to saturating their potential market.
