| TWRoO said: It is, along with many other things, on ioi's "to do" list. I believe it wasn't done initially because of complications from Sonys fiscals, which have changed. PS3 isn't so hard to sort out because only one 6month period is affected [5.5 'shipped' last fiscal] but the problem is what to do with PSP and PS2... afterall the 'shipment' numbers are likely much higher than what they should be. [Sonys old method counted manufactured models... now like Ninty/MS they count retail sales] |
If by "retail sales" you mean sales TO RETAIL, then yes.
Sony used to count it when it left the factory and entered a warehouse. Now they count it when it leaves the warehouse for a retail store, which is the same as N and MS.
None of them report sales to customers.
I hope this gets updated too.
