Only one thing I have to say. Since retail stores send their sales up weekly, then for Sony to say they know the sales thru the end of the year is impossible. The sales won't be reported until 1/7/08. Now, the sales on Dec 31st will ADD to their totals, I know. But to claim that they know it as the press release does (' during the critical holiday sales window (Friday, November 23, 2007 to December 31, 2007)', is not possible.
The same, of course is true with days in the week up thru Black Friday. Just pointing out that 100% accuracy in their wording is not there. But if Jack says "have sold through 1.2 million units of PS3", I'll accept that as sold through to the customer (as their headline says) until NPD says otherwise.
But I do have a question or two. Does the 1.2M include Canada or not? After all, VGChartz numbers do, right? Does NPD collect Canadian retail as well?
Torturing the numbers. Hear them scream.
