arguing with cookingyourmama is like banging your head against a wall. You might break the wall, but it isn't worth it.

Please prove me wrong with facts or go away and stop trolling, thank you.


you are prove-resistant.

Check my sig for example.

or try to explain why it is just natural that the Xbox 360 has 3  times more consoles in stores than the PS3.
You come up with so much nonsense like Microsoft-stores ordering more than they need as if the % of MS stores of all the stores worldwide that sell 360s would be significant.

How can you overship in the first place? Retailers ORDER from MS. IF they have enough consoles in supply, why  should they order more? Because MS goes to Gamestop telling "buy them or we will punish you!" ?!

We are talking about messed up VGC data and you try to prove people wrong with... VGC data from last year.

Anyway. Head, wall, hurting.

To begin with your Sig refers to shipped numbers not sold & at different points through different generations certain consoles makers have chosen to have more consoles in the supply chain than others, it's as simple as that. In just the past two years there's been 3 quarters where Sony has had more in the supply chain than Microsoft, and in December 2010 Sony had more than 3 times the amount of ps3's in the retail chain compared to 360's. These things happen and they are a normal part of the console/retail cycle.

On top of all of that for Vgchartz numbers to be wrong then that means NPD, GFK, Media Create, Famitsu, Nintendo's sales charts and all other independent sources of sales data are wrong as well because they all match up and don't show the 360 selling more worldwide.
