Turkish is in full defence mode today... lol

Anyway, broken down, I'd say 1.7m for PS3 and 1.1m for PS2 as Sony stated both were down.

so lowest qtr 1 PS3 shipments for some time.

Yes both are down because last Q1 they sold 3.2m combined, and this 2.8m. I dont see PS2 selling 1.1m this quarter, must likely PS3 sold 2m. We should get real numbers soon because combined these numbers doesnt make any sense.

"Sales decreased 14.5% year-on-year (a 10% decrease on a constant currency basis) to 118.0 billion yen (1,493
million U.S. dollars). This decrease was primarily due to lower sales of hardware and software of the PSP®
(PlayStation Portable) and PlayStation®3, partially offset by the contribution of the PlayStation®Vita introduced
from December 2011."

primarily... so PS3 and PSP fell more than PS2.   1.7m max for PS3.  1.5m to 1.7m.  

The only possible kink is that when Sony say "Sales" they actually mean the revenue they make.... I don't follow PS3 news much, has there been a price cut since last year? (if yes then it is still possible for shipment figures to be (at least marginally) higher than last years Q1)
