A week ago I read all sorts of reasons why Ps3 wont hit 20 million this year. One reason being Ps3 isn't tracking the same as last year... But I have just found out that last year Black Friday sales were a week earlier. Black friday was on the the 23rd last year. This year they are on the 28th.

Last year last week it sold 229k

This year last week it sold 212k.

Last year during the same week the Ps3 tracked at 246k...

This year it will be around 240k.

It is tracking pretty similar.

Black friday week the ps3 sold 360k...

So how much will it sell this year? I don't have the answer but I'm pretty confident the Ps3 can sell it's 450k a week average from here on out to reach it's 20 mil mark. (This is also assuming ioi doesn't pull a fast one again)

Also last year since it started a week earlier that means this year it will end a week later.

Last year it ended week ending Dec. 28th. This year it will end week ending the 3rd.

So with this discovery... do you guys still think 20 million is impossible still?

(And for those wondering why there is a 17k difference that one week. Dynasty Warriors 6 released in Japan that week. And that game is HUGE over there)
