So, if I got this right.. Technically, the PS3 didn't sell all these units THIS week, it's merely compensating from the apparent undertracking throughout previous weeks?
|
No, it sold that much on this week. If you see other weeks, you will see new numbers for PS3 already. Check out the last couple of weeks for an example.
Also, ioi stated they increased PS3 numbers for the last 2 years in EMEAA specially on some smaller markets because of shipment numbers. Plus, theu adjusted up last few weeks because of GFK numbers, seems like VGC undertracked PS3 lately because of Move.

Wow... That's VERY badly undertracked if true.. I don't know what to think about this site anymore :/
|
Bear in mind that EMEAA isn't just europe, it covers the emerging markets as well which to be fair to VGC is very difficult to track to the extent that no one else actually bothers. There is likely to be mistakes in these cases and they've admitted fault by making the adjustments and will hopefully have a better understanding of these markets in the future
|
Sure, I get that. What I don't understand though is why the hell PS3 seems to be the only consonle affected by taking these new markets into account? Is it simply the only console available there or something? I just don't get it..

I can't say for sure, but it seems like Sony is trying hard to establish Playstation brand over these countries, unlike Nintendo and Microsoft. Correct me if I'm wrong, please.

360 is officially sold in 35 countries. PS3 going by PSN regions is closer to 60 countries. Not sure about Nintendo
