i find that people claiming 'shortages' and 'overships' absolutely ridiculous.

are you going to tell me only 400K xboxs are sitting on the shelf WORLDWIDE while 1.4 million PS3 are doing the same??

Come on!!!

 

those terms have always been used for people to justify their inaccurate numbers instead of just doing adjustment. But hey, whatever float their boats.

Actually the expanded base of countries that sony ships too supports the numbers above.  It's not an overship or shortage issue.  Sony's pipeline of countries that need supply is larger than that of MS.

good point and that probably does explain the difference between shipped numbers and sold to consumers.  Sony simply has more consoles in the pipeline and more on shelves compared to Nintendo and MS due to the larger amount of places Sony actually ships and sells units.  I should've thought of that earlier.
