I'm fairly certain the PS3 numbers are wrong.

I'm fairly certain that your post confirms my suspicion that some PS3 fans are slightly worried by this thread.

 

VGChartz has always been off on PS3 numbers, a month ago Sony said it had SOLD 23.8 million PS3's, even if you want to say it was shipped to retailers that would be over 3/4 million consoles on shelves, yet that very same week reports of shortages.

You all praise these numbers to be facts. They are esitmates, and every once in awhile you need to realize that these estimates are wrong.

750k consoles on shelves (and in stock, at distributors and under shipping) is not much compared to historical values. So I don't see any particular reason to complain in that case.

No one says the numbers are facts. It is however funny that you both believe there have been significant shortages for a month AND that sales must be higher this week, shortages be damned. What gives?
