It's time to debunk the myth.

VGChartz is currently in a frenzy over the PS3 and PS Vita supposedly being under-tracked by hundreds of thousands of units. I thought this sounded a bit too good to be true, so I searched the Internet and twitter and I descovered something shocking...

The original source for the story is a blog run by a playstation fan called Gematsu...THERE IS NO SONY PRESS RELEASE!

My prediction threads:

Wii U will sell under 40m units (made on 14th September 2012)

PS Vita will sell under 20m units (made on 30th September 2012)

Wii U will sell under 7m in 2013 - I was right

Gematsu is not a playstation fan site, it just focuses on classic console gaming.

Ok...IGN just confirmed that this story is TRUE (unless they've been fooled by Gematsu too)
