The report also highlights that just this past December, Sony's PS3 managed to surpass the number of Xbox 360s shipped worldwide (about 77 million vs. 76 million), despite the PS3 launching a year later. While many hardcore gamers are now waiting for the next-generation systens from Sony and Microsoft, IDC noted that Nintendo will still "find an audience" with Wii U, reaching global bundle shipments of 50 million by year-end 2016.

They are selling this report for 4.500 USD. I would so laugh my ass off if they managed to fuck those numbers up between two quarterly reports. Analysts...

They are selling their projection. It has nothing to do with this report.

So they are like GFK... interesting... I still don't see this happening unless they did a stupid mistake like takes sonys HW report that includes both ps2 and ps3. Or maybe they reversed the numbers on accident and the 360 is only 1 million ahead

I don't think it's happened just yet, but it will without a doubt happen sometime in 2013.
