If you guys wants to believe this figure provided from Tose, just believe it. But it is obviously that there are a lot of people still believe the numbers provided from Sony and Microsoft.
In North America, XBOX360 outsold PS3 by more than 8million and in Japan PS3 outsold XBOX360 by 4.5million. If this number is true, it means PS3 already outsold XBOX360 by another 4.5million in EMEAA region.
So, show us the evidence about this lead in EMEAA region. I cannot get it from VGC and any website else.

Notice how sports games in EMEAA always sell a lot more on ps3 than 360?
Also, who's to say it's in EMEAA?
It could be that in North America, there are 3 million units that were replaced by companies like gamestop, etc to people who purchased warranties.
Look, this is how gamestop and others used to do it:
Get shipped 360s
Sell 360 in store warranty.
360 breaks.
Take a 360 off shelf and give it to customer.
Return broken 360 to MS, receive refurbished unit (not a replacement, and not included in shipped numbers)
Sell refubished 360s to new customer.
Profit on the difference between warranty cost and difference between used and new console, improving customer satisfaction and games purchase visits.
End result:
Two shipped units going to one purchase.

Honestly, I dont know how Tose decide the number of replace console is 4 million. I dont know if we should trust this number either. But still, no reason to dismise logic and argue what theprof is saying. There may be console counted twice in Xbox numbers.
