Ps3 massively over tracked then here. It was at 63.9m shipped at end of april and shipped 1.9m meaning for those 3 months an average of 633k. So there is no way on earth it did an additional 200k in the following week as its average would be around 150k-158k a week.
Which would then mean zero stock on shelves and mass shortages which obviously isn't the case seeing as here in uk at least some stores recently have cut its price, they wouldn't do that if it's demand was as high as vgc indicates.

So we are looking at around 1m over tracked minimum for sure because to think there is anything less then 600k left on shelves is silly. But I'm sure the usual suspects will try and argue vgc is right....

Hahahahahahahaha no the ps3 is not overtracked by 1m, seriously your pro 360 agenda is getting embarrassing now.

As I said one rule for one, and a different rule for the other. If it is okay for Sony to have such little stock on shelves why is it not okay for 360 to have as little stock on shelves?

Because the tracking services tell us how much each has sold?


What tracking services? Are you talking about Nintendos numbers? Didn't they say in their report that Sony shipped more then 2m for the past quarter and thats with only tracking a part of the market not all of it? If thats the case again like I said before who are you going to believe knows more about their own numbers Sony or Nintendo?

Nintendo don't report Sony shipped numbers lol. 

Exactly!

They report sold numbers i.e sold to consumers right? But as I said they only cover around 90% of the market?

So if Sony SHIPPED 1.9m last quarter (since start of the year) and Nintendo said they SOLD over 2.27m (since the start of this year) then that means 370k were SOLD from the previous shipment for the PS3 this year. And if we then say that it is missing 10% tracked we can take a rough guess that it will be 10% of that 2.27m, so at bare minimum another 200k from the start of the year. 

So if we use Nintendo's SOLD numbers they would have it at 2.47m sold from the start of the year. While PS3 shipped 1.9m for all terotories from the start of the year. Which if anything shows that there is no supply problems at all seeing as based on Nintendo's figures nearly 20% of the christmas holiday shipment was sold this year....
