@thx

its pointless mate... we have been saying this for ages, but nobody listens.

it effectively means that Sony numbers will always have a wider gap with reported retail numbers sold than both ms and Ninty because Sony report PS3 as sold to retail in their numbers even if they havent made them yet, whereas ms and ninty only report sold consoles built and out of the factory door.

what evidence do you have to support this?

Well they definitely said they now reported sold, as you know....  that clearly doesnt mean sold to consumers, so its a resonable assumption that it means sold to retail...

Now if they report sold it doesnt have to be shipped does it?  It also explains the numbers we have (and all the other tracking companies have) v sony numbers.

whats your take?

we already know this and it is the same for MS and Ninty.

so, at the end, YOU have deducted from this :

Sony : sold to retailers

MS/Ninty : sold and sent to retailers

Am I right ?
