Forums - Sales Discussion - PS3 "Others" numbers doesn't make sense

kowenicki said:
this is fail of truly epic proportions.....

and who is this really? whose alt account?

I don't see where's the "FAIL" about the fact I thought they were counting UK separately from other European countries

"That makes it 13 million in Europe & UK"

Yes, and it is right now at 31 million in the World & USA



Give the guy a break. Geez.



On the contrary, the UK is 30% of the European market for the big three on average.

Not counting the UK in Others is like saying Sony counts California and the other 49 USA states seperately. The UK is simply a portion of Europe...

Our figures are fine.

So the figures are fine if they are lagging millions and millions behind shipped numbers!?

The guy has a point on being worried damn. What if PS3 and X360 on VGC became like PSP numbers in the future, 10 millions below official shipped figures?

Sony launched a new model with its price cut...just because the old models are sold out in most places it didn't mean they were gone - so there was some stock build up in places they never sold through completely as the model splits weren't directly in line with demand.

The 34m is just my estimate for PS3 shipments through Dec - it could be 33.5m or whatever.

No the guy does not have a point. He though the UK was counted seperately to Europe which was the reason for him making this thread.

I'll refrain from commenting on my view of such a a mistake (I would receive a ban).

Don't try and support such a mistake it makes you look desperate and silly.



I'm better than you because I made my own. I'm cuter tooooooooo.

@haxxiy: If you're such a smart guy start tracking for yourself worldwide sales.

If the numbers are 1 m off so what ? What is the difference for You if it's 32m and not 31m or 36m instead of 37m ?

People stop making fools of yourself !



Lol he did a Leo-J.
