My main problem with it is, when did VGC become a site that estimates "active userbase"? Am I wrong in assuming the year or so I've been here that those HW and SW numbers on the main page are estimates of sold-to-customer? Or did I miss something, and this whole time they have accounted for failure rates and replacements (I know this is definitely not the case)? And didn't the article say preliminary SALES, not preliminary ACTIVE USERBASE? So why are we even trying to calculate that, especially considering how almost completely impossible it is? Or if you want to calculate it fine, but don't say, "Well this estimation on unique users is the sales numbers now."
I mean really you're giving an unfair advantage to other devices, especially Kinect (we know the comparisons will be made). Basically, you're saying ONE unit of Kinect sold, even if it's multiple to one person/household, count as ONE unit sold here. But with Move, TWO or even THREE units of Move controllers sold may be counted as ONE unit, since it could be multiple units sold to one person/household. How does that make sense at all?
