you still failed to answer my question I asked you about 5 times now.

It's kinda hard to answer your question of "Why should retailers have 1 million more Xbox 360 consoles in stores than PS3s?" when there aren't more than 1 million xbox360's in stores than PS3's in the first place.


So why should retailers have 2.83 times more Xbox 360s in stores than PS3s?

OR

Why should retailers have 3.62 times more days of supply for the Xbox 360 than the PS3?

For both questions, please keep in mind MS can't tell retailers how many they should order.

1. Only the retailers know the true answer to that but that's what they like to do, since both the 360 and the ps3 have been on sale, in 20 out of 22 sales quarters, retailers have chosen to have more 360's in the retail chain compared to the ps3 despite the fact that 14 out of those 22 quarters the ps3 has out sold the 360.

2. One possible explanation is the retailers in the countries in which the 360 sells best like to have more consoles in stock when compared to the retailers in the countries that the ps3 sells best.

3. And more specifically right now if you've been following the news you'd know that it is likely Sony are releasing a brand new even smaller version of the PS3 in the next month or so. If this is the case then that would explain why there is an extra low amount of PS3's in stock in the retail channel, as Sony will be phasing out the current model and it doesn't make any sense to have loads of the old model lying around.

so you can't provide a rational answer.

Thanks.

I just did, thanks for replying tho.

"Only retailers know the answer" means YOU can't provide a rational answer.

Point 1 is a fact, points 2 & 3 are rational answers. *rollseyes*
