Rounding error. It usually amounts to nothing.

while your observations do appear to be correct, odds are there were adjustments and on Sept 15th vita was credited 101,697 units too many.


My observations are correct.

But I've been making 3DS vs Vita charts since Vita launch to prove 3DS is better. Therefore, THIS JUST HAPPENED.

Why pick an arbitrary date and just zap 100k from it? Why bury it back in September?

Can somone please tell pezus so he can fix it or give an answer? I'm sure he'll want the answer.

I thought ethomaz already posted about the -100k adjustment to the Vita this week?

You really need to let go of your obsession with me


This isn't just an adjustment, boo.

If you add up all the weekly totals for Vita, they don't add up to what they have as the current total.

Totally different from adjustments - all the 3DS numbers add up correctly.

When there are adjuments, they usually just divide up the amount they are off and distribute them among the past 5 -6 weeks.

I've seen this many times for the 3DS and Vita but this is the first ADDITION error I've seen and I'm hoping you can help to correct it, baby.

OMG. Sexual Harrassment. Reported.

Let me see how it is. You're looking at the updated charts, correct?

Just checked and you are right, but if I had to guess this is simply a case of them forgetting to adjust the weeks prior to the adjustment to the totals.

Or maybe it's an error...


Yeah in my last post I meant "MAYBE" and not "BABY" so that was a typo.

But, yeah, whether they forgot to do something or forgot how to add, it's an error.

And now you see, pezus, that I'm not biased against you or the Vita.  :^)
