Was MS Wrong When They Claimed The #1 Spot For HW Sales WW?

actually it's the opposite, VGC members are having a hard time accepting that MS hold an average of 1.44 million units in stock  on Shelves, its very hard for the SDF to deal with right now.

Your math seems off, I'm getting 1.72 for the average of those five numbers, more if you take out the obviously outlying .6 which would makes the average 2.0 instead.

Also I suggest not throwing around terms like SDF around

I'll lay off the attacks, no hard feelings Ethomaz.

 

But back to the numbers I'm adding up the VGcharts numbers quarter by quarter that BH3 and Kowenicki posted in the Ship Vs sold thread (they are accurate and are VGcharts official numbers.  And I actually forgot to add in the numbers from 2011 as BHR-3 had left them off....the number comes to 1.37 avarage supply.  So if I'm missing something I'm happy to recant, but those are the numbers.

I think a table will make more easy to you .

When?	Shipped	VGC	On Shelves
End of 2006	10.4m	8.1m	2.3m
End of 2007	17.7m	16.0m	1.7m
End of 2008	28.5m	26.7m	1.8m
End of 2009	38.8m	36.9m	1.9m
End of 2010	50.8m	46.2m	0.6m (supply issues)
End of 2011	66.0m?	63.7m?	2.3m?

Avg. with End of 2010 (supply issues): 1.6m

Avg without End of 2010 (supply issues): 1.9m

Where did you got the 1.37m avg???
