The wii failure rate is 2.7% according to this survey by gamespot (but I believe it is 6% as I've already seen on more reliable sources but can't find it now)

Let's make an average and say 4.5%. It the normal failure rate ofr any electronic device.

On the other hand, if I'm going by your logic, the only person I know that had a PS3 doesn't use it anymore because it is broken.

100% failure rate for Sony, then.

I'm just showing you how stupid it is to try spin things saying the 360 has only shipped 9 Million a year because of the failure rate. (A failure rate which is unconfirmed and taken from people in the street.) The only people who know the real failure rates are Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo.

It's annoying. And wrong. And stupid. And I'm surprised you can get away with it without moderation really... I've seen people banned for similar comments. Not surprising though, when you look at who you are and what you're trolling.

I'm sorry but a survey from a reliable source is much more accurate than the opinion on the matter of "19 year old male from United Kingdom" as it says in your profile.

If you're not happy with that survey, blame whoever made it and posted it as worldwide gaming news, not me.

And as I think you can understand, broken consoles are often replaced (not the total amount for various reasons), and those replacements come included in the shipments. With a 54.2% failure rate I'd guess just a couple million of 360's are replacement units.

End of offtopic for me.
