Preise von Segas PS3- und Wii-Spielen

31.05.06 - Atari hat Preise von PS3- und Wii-Spielen veröffentlicht, die sich auf die Beneluxländer beziehen. Die Spiele sind von Sega, allerdings übernimmt Atari den Vertrieb der Software in diesen Regionen.

- Sonic The Hedgehog (PS3): Euro 67,99 - $86.25 USD
- World Snooker Championship 2007 (PS3): Euro 73,99 - $93.97 USD
- Sonic Wild Fire (Wii): Euro 59,99 - $75.95 USD
- Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz (Wii): Euro 59,99 - $75.95 USD


Inwiefern die Preise auch auf Deutschland zutreffen, bleibt abzuwarten: Hierzulande regelt Sega den Vertrieb und hat noch keine offiziellen Preisangaben zu den obigen Spielen gemacht.
CLICK (JeuxVideo: 'Les prix des jeux Playstation 3 et Wii')

Atari Publishes all Sega games in germany , keep in mind add about 10 dollars for a game in germany. Which puts Nintendo Wii games about 59.99 pricepoint and PS3 games at a 69.99 pricepoint.

Besides defending the PS3, Harrison took time to evangelize the device, which will launch worldwide this November. In particular he said the Linux-based operating system on the console's hard drive will have enough processing power and non-gaming functionalities to render traditional PCs--most of which use a form of Microsoft's Windows OS--moot in the home. "We believe that the PS3 will be the place where our users play games, watch films, browse the Web, and use other [home] computer functions," said Harrison. "The PlayStation 3 is a computer. We do not need the PC."

OMG, PlayStation 3 Controller Spelling Mistake

Kotakuite Oly hit Sony's super swish Ginza showroom, which was not only displaying the PlayStation 3 for all to see, but a glaring spelling error. Instead of "SELECT", the PS3 controller reads "SERECT". Even though Sony's been batting fly balls of late, we're not going to poke fun. That would be rude. Spelling in a foreign language is hard, especially when it's an unusual word like "select".

So it's all up in the air in that regard.

I went into three of these in order to size up the situation - the Warhawk booth, the Blu-ray booth, and the user interface booth - and in two of the three (Warhawk and Blu-ray), the hardware used was the Playstation itself.

By introducing the next-generation HDMI 1.3 technology, with its high speed and deep color capabilities, PS3 will push the boundaries of audiovisual quality to the next level of more natural and smoother expression on the latest large flat panel displays.
