It's not an attack; you love SON¥ (that's understandable) and, although the final tally points to a PS3 win, I'd imagine the numbers we got weren't what you had expected. They didn't help to make this PS3 victory more conclusive. What I wanted to express by you having a worse year, in 2012 I mean, is my firm belief that the X360 will take wins in both shipped and sold-through to consumers. As a result, I expect your posts to become more sour this time around next year.

You're probably going to be holding your breath until November before we start seeing sales trends that support your firm belief.

It'll be a fun wait. I'll bring some chips n' salsa. Oh! and cream soda.

Are you including portables in this? Or just comparing home console sales and shipments?

Of course he's including the 3DS.  It's common knowledge that the 3DS is going to spiral downward to only selling 10 million for the year. 

Speaking of Nintendo, it's going to be really interesting how sales go for the Wii U.  Kinda exciting knowing that next gen is just around the corner.  Can't wait.  Ah, who am I kidding, I just want to see new bar graphs on the front page. 

@ OP

Kinda crazy how many threads we have about this same subject.  At least we got a new graph out of it, even if it tells us what we already know.  MS shipped quite a few extra 360s in 2011, some of it to make up for low supply at the end of 2010 and some may have had to do with a misjudgement in demand in Dec.  What's kinda funny is if MS had been able to keep enough supply in the channels in Dec 2010, you could take ~700K-1 million off their shipments for Q1 2011 and we wouldn't be having all this silly discussion right now.

Most of us are looking forward to the new generation. I too want to see new graphs! O_O All I actually want to see is sales for all the next gen. consoles. This is the first Game Generation that I have been really hyped for. I used to never get into gaming that much but I really am now! I really want to see all the new competition.
