well, I think I'll stick with VGC as Sony's fiscal reports have contradictions. Plus sold to consumers is what is important, not retail. Examples below. FY06 Q4 shows FY04 = 2.97, FY05 = 14.06, FY06 = 8.36 FY07 Q4 shows FY06 = 9.53, FY07 = 13.89 FY08 Q4 shows FY07 = 13.81, FY08 = 14.11 So with that I have different totals anywhere from 53.89 to 54.58 shipped through Q4 2008. :/ I think the problem is when the changed their accounting practices and that actually increased their 'shipped/sold' figures. Now Sony forecasted 15m for FY09 and based on above I'm betting 10m tops. So, even if I use shipped figures that's 65m at best for April 1 2010. I still think, 80m tops lifetime. Sources: |
So let me get this straight, you believe ioi's numbers over a manufacturer's official numbers, I'm sorry but LMFAO.
Here's the official documentation I'm talking about:

You can believe whatever you want, but now I know I've seen it all, before it was vgchartz is right NPD, Gfk, Enterbrain is wrong, but now is vgchartz is right and the MANUFACTURER is wrong. LMFAO.
