Because they didn't. The ps3 decreased on a weekly basis , hense the less than 250k Gaf estimate. I bet that the wii outsold the ps3 in October and the ps3 real number is really close to 200k and that's why sony put out an embarassing PR statement.

Thank you!

Hmm, so PS3 did post slightly higher average weekly increases, but something like 500 units. Was it 250k dead on?

Wii goes from 51k weekly average in Sep to 58k weekly average in Oct.

I would assume there's some rounding going on and PS3 is dead on flat. Seriously, what are the odds of that?

Possibly, still good going for PS3.

Does anyone know what Wii got this October last year for NPD?

It'll depend on if DKCR can act like a NSMB Wii for Wii
