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

 

It's very possible.  Outselling the PS3 doesn't automaticly mean an increase of marketshare percentage.  If both consoles continue to sell while the 5 million 360 lead stays the same, the percentage of the 5 million lead will be smaller in comparison to the total sales of the console.  Let's just say that 1 out of 5 is 20% of 5, but 1 out of 10 is 10% of 10.  But when you factor in growing Wii sales, it's potentally forcing marketshare down for both the 360 and PS3 which is what is happening with the 360.  As we all know, the Wii is a runaway success while the PS3 is doing very well on its own considering all the factors.
