Week of PS3 Slim (worldwide): 582,815

X360 S: 160,599 (took the week after to get full data) and 198,071 in EMEAA. So combining launch weeks, that's a total of 358,670. 

Unless it sells over 200K in Japan, all these different articles talking about how the Xbox 360S has enjoyed a better launch in specific countries  are moot.

I mean, PS3 did 164,166 in America and 265,744 in EMEAA on launch week. Why is it news that the 360 did 198,071?

EMEAA launch was 5 days (PS3Slim) v 2 days (360S), it was also including a hefty price cut.

And in the US the 360S has had a better opening 4 weeks than the PS3 did for each and every week of its first 4 weeks.

 

 

Stop using logic, I don't think it's what he wanted to hear

 

Wow, impressive numbers.
