I still don't get how Sony manages to hold onto % more than MS. MS seems to lose % more quickly, which isn't that logical to me :-/

 

 Yes this EXACTLY! It's not mathematically possible. Especially considering M$ have outsold Sony considerably in others since the price cut. Hmmmmm

 

I'm not exactly sure if I understand what you mean but in case you are talking about market share: Microsoft has more consoles sold than Sony. If both consoles sell exactly the same amount of units each week Microsoft is gonna lose market share until they have exactly the same share as Sony.

But I think I missunderstood your questions and you guys already knew this, right?

 

Edit: What Seece said:

 

Microsoft currently has 29.9% market share. Each week Microsoft accounts for less than 29.9% of all home consoles sold they are going to lose market share.

Sony is at 22.2% so each week they account for more than 22.2% of all home consoles sold they will gain marketshare.

Nintendo is at 47.9% but they usually account for 55% of the home consoles sold currently so they will gain marketshare each week.
