you said it wasnt 'necessarily active install base' (install base implies active btw), which is incorrect, you dont track install base at all. you then went on to say that you track move install base, which you dont. you track market share and make guesses on install base based on market share. completely different things. though ms does offer to fix broken consoles within 3-4 years of purchase, it doesnt mean they fix all of them. some people may not bother to send it in for repairs, might not know that the repairs are being offered, or buy a new one while theyre waiting for repairs because they dont want to wait to play a video game. failure rate lowers install base, whether or not the fix is offered. you not knowing this tells me that even if you did track install base, it would most likely be wrong. |
No, we do track install base for Move, it's in a sales article on the main site if you go look for it, I said the is a wider gap for discrepency. Not to mention, like I already said, the sales on the front page arnt install base, but from the SW sales and other various info, ioi and Source are able to get a close figure on active install base.
You keep pushing the notion there are a large chunk of 360's out of action all you like, there is more evidence to suggest not than to proove your point.
