...so if we were to adjust sales for comparable time on the market, which console has sold more? I have been wondering this for a while. seems odd that I havent scene this on the forums before. any info would be great.

And...?

PS1 easily outsold Saturn and it was released later. That is irrelevant because the PS1-Saturn gap was 80 Million. It wouldnt make ANY diffrence if Saturn launched 3 years before PS1, the result would have been the same, PS1 would be still ahead. Now, if PS3 and Xbox would launch at the same time, PS3 would be easly aheaad, because if you count the PS3's sales from Nov 2006, PS3 sold 1.5 million more consoles than Xbox 360 worldwide.

PS2 easily outsold Dreamcast and it was released later.This is even more irrelevant since PS2-Dreamcast gap is 140 Million . Not to mention Dreamcast died after year or two after launch.

PS3 isn't outselling anything and is the biggest financial failure in gaming history. Lets stop being so worried about Xbox 360 and focus on that.Biggest financial failure its not, original Xbox lost about 6 billion, CD-i was also disaster and of course Dreamcast, i wont even compare software sales with these consoles. PS3 outsold Xbox in both 2010 and 2009 by quite the large margin, the sales in this time of year can be erased with 1 won week in holiday sales. In 2009, Xbox was outselling PS3 for every week in 2009 till September, where PS3 erased the gap in 4 weeks. These sales in thse part of year really dont mean much,



XBox losses are nearer to 4 billion than to 6 billion. MS discontinued the Xbox just when they announced the X360.
