Even though GTA IV was launched the past month, it did not help either Play station 3 or Xbox360 to overtake Wii in terms of sales. Wii sold 714,000 units in April while Nintendo DS sold 414,000 units. Xbox360 was just slightly ahead of Play station 3 selling 188,000 units while Play station 3 sold 187,100 units. Both the consoles sales were down by a huge margin compared to the sales in March where Xbox360 sold 262,000 and Play station 3 sold 257,000 units.

Sony was quite happy with the sales figure and Jack Tretton, CEO of SCEA said “Clearly, the tremendous legacy of Grand Theft Auto on PlayStation, combined with the blockbuster launch of Gran Turismo 5 Prologue packed a one-two punch with consumers at retail this month. The proof is in the numbers and, in April, PlayStation 3 hardware sales experienced a 127% increase over April of last year”. Play station 2 was also alive selling 124,000 units.

GTA IV was the top selling game for the month (no surprises) and Mario Kart Wii took the 2nd place.

ASUS today agreed that Asus had sent 5200mAh capacity batteries with their Eee PC to reviewers. The current Eee PC sold to consumers has a 4800mAh battery instead of the 5200mAh one. Asus apologized publicly and said that they are thinking of launching the 5200mAh battery as an add-on to the Eee PC, and accidentally they sent the Eee PC equipped with 5200mAh batteries to the reviewers. Asus said that they are thinking of replacing the 4800mAh batteries with the 5200mAh one to the consumers who have already bought the Eee PC. Something like this is nothing new and many companies have been sending cherry picked products to the reviewers so as to get more points/good comments than their product should.

Apple updated their Mac range day before yesterday and now it’s possible to purchase a Mac Workstation Pro with 8800GT Graphics Card. This card is equipped with 512Mb of GDDR3 memory and supports Dual Link DVI. Earlier this year Apple had said that 8800GT will be an exclusive option for the new Mac Pro. Apple Mac’s usually come with low to mid end graphics card and there is no option to include a high end graphics card in your Mac, so this option must be welcomed by one and all.

eBay

Many people, sellers had been boycotting eBay for a long time but it looks like the boycott did not affect eBay at all. The company reported earnings of 2,198$ USD with a revenue increase of 24% over Q1 of 2007. Net income also rose to 562M$ USD. The performance of the company significantly beats analyst expectations. However, the company admitted that the “conversion rate” i.e. the percentage of sales ending in success has declined from the past year. All the sellers that boycotted eBay had very few alternatives since amazon.com only allows resale of selected item and craiglist.com is avoided by many buyers for its bad reputation of illegal activity.

However the future of the company looks bleak. In the first quarter of 2008, eBay had 83.9 million users, which is only a 1% increase from last year Quarter 1. This indicates that eBay may be reaching a market saturation point and in this case, customer satisfaction becomes very important for eBay. From next month, eBay is all set to eliminate the negative feedback from sellers to buyers thus leaving normal sellers at the mercy of their buyer’s review. Power Sellers though will get some new tools for their safety.
