All things are relative. Just because they didn't move millions of consoles doesn't mean they weren't huge releases. |
Here's the fun part about percentages: when you have a small number, it becomes really easy to increase by a large percentage. A 150% increase becomes less impressive when you're improving on a sub-8k figure, for example.
And then said minor bumps proved to be just that: minor bumps on the road to sub-10k.
Lies, damn lies, and statistics.
