This is for the end of September.

Big shipments will start toward the end of October.

It isnt a normal holiday season either...  PS3 and 360 will be down YOY this year.

The point is that we dont know the normal supply as the numbers for the 360 in particular have been off for ages.  The PS3 is anyones guess as we dont get the numbers any more.

Im not just having a go for the sake of it.  I am using common sense and the extra information of the shipment number.  it just does not make any sense whatsoever, hasnt done for years.  The 360 is undertracked by a significant amount in Rest of World and perhaps slightly in Europe imo.

 


Thanks.

 

i know you had a good reason for doubting them which is why I asked you. You know this stuff better than I do.

neither MS or Sony said they ship 80M so far and he has been saying that for a while now, I wonder why he changed his tune.


what?  Ms said it last night...?

I dont understand what you mean.

 


MS announced shipped. But I guess they already surpassed 80 million Xnox 360. Vgchartz isnt accurate.

BTW welcome again bro. Even though you gaming religion is different than mine but we all appriciate the return of a worthy opponent. :p :p

So the Wii U did only 67,000 after a big release and price cut?

Not looking good for the system's future.

Well the price cut was on Sept 20 In US and Oct 4 in EU, also Wind Waker was Oct 4 so that was last week and before that sales rose. I dont think many were expecting anymore that a few week boost from Wind Waker due to it being a remake and all.



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

I agree with Kowen, there was no need for an adjustment to 360 aside from simply where the sold consoles were. 1.5m on shelves would mean that they've specifically ordered quite a lot for their own stores. Maybe they're inticipating a lot of demand after Don's infamous quote. :D



Looks like its really time for XB360 WW price cut...

unlikely. There are only about 65 MS stores so even if they each got a ton of 360s it would only account for a small number of the retail stock. As I said in my earlier post odds are you have about 1.5m worldwide thanks to stores like Walmart, Gamestop, Target, and Bestbuy. Worldwide you have a huge number of these stores that need stock.

11,000 Walmarts

6,600 Gamestops

2,900 Best buys

1,800 Targets

It's also important to remember than retail stock doesn't mean on store shelves. Retail stock also includes retail store backrooms, distribution centers, online retailer warehouses.



I've noticed that Europe suddenly sells a lot more than USA

164k USA vs 234k Europe last week

I mean total hardware

Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.
