So I dont understand. Are we to believe that there all but no PS3's in stock right now????

Without a doubt Sony are talking sold to to retail. Thats a given. They always do. So if they have sold 31+ million on this site that would mean major shortages no????
Why have we not heard about them?????

Something isnt right. Somewhere. But surely Sony/M$ arent wrong? Surely they not what their own consoles are doing better than anyone else?

I recall there were shortages.

 

As for Xbox 360 units sold, it's safe to say he mixed up with units sold to retailers.

Ive never seen shortgaes here in UK. It was available all through Xmas and now. The Wii had signs outside saying Out of stock. The PS3 has never had that in my city. Wierd. Also I never saw it on any websites like you do with the wii. I knew nothing of any shortages on or offline.

It all seems strange to me. Also why would a Sony exec say the gap is 8 million when  it isn't? Surely it's in Sony's best interest to say it's closer?
