As I mentioned as a response to the original news thread:

"... Of course it's rather simple to obtain Kinect sales. But with this site, Move sold through to customers and calculating the number of Move compatible PS3s are an estimate which should be considered with discernment. But I personally feel that Pachter is very dis-credible. So if his numbers fall in line with VGChartz's, it seriously lead me to believe that this site's numbers in regards to Move are very inaccurate. Just an observation. And I do have an opinion in regards to Kinect not moving a lot of Xbox 360 hardware so far. Unfortunately, it would probably lead to an unintended flame war."


Estimate of the install base yes... but the number of actual MOVE sales is estimated in the same way that Kinect is, and any hardware or software is...

Now clearly some people will have bought more than one move...  

It doesnt alter the fact that Kinect is romping it.

 

Not when we truely do not know how well the Move is doing.


We dont know how well anything is truly doing... its all estimates based on all available data.

Why dont sony tell us what they estimate the sell through is?  Nintendo have in the past, MS have here... maybe they like the shipped number better? Their silence may speak volumes.

I think it's fair to say that even though a PSEye is required to utilize Move, not all PSEye users bought it for Move.  This is an exceptional case where even SONY doesn't accurate know the unique household users of Move.  And you have to admit that any number they estimate will be taken in either direction depending which "camp" is using those numbers.


which is why an independent story like this is the best source we have...


Best = I agree.  I think it's a pretty cool site.  But it doesn't mean it's always accurate.  And I'm not trying to argue with you.  At best, we can agree to disagree.  Peace, man.  :)
