Sales For The New PS3 Slim Were Lower But Respectable In Japan This Week.

Obviously, no one expecting Sony to continue selling 150,000 units every week, and it'll now be interesting to see whereabouts Slim sales settle.

Before the price drop Sony were shifting around 10,000 units a week and they'll hope that the cut will propel them to settle somewhere around the 20,000 mark no doubt.
