I'm not a noob, silly. I know it's shipped to retailers. But, by my calculations, that would put ~2.55M consoles on shelves. Something, according to VGC, Sony has never done. Max it has been for any quarter was 1.5M. But, I guess I could give it ~1.6M-1.7M on shelves, which is where I got my 800K. Then again, with little to no shipments going to Japan or the US (I haven't seen a new PS2 in any store for several months), PS2 could have dropped like a stone last quarter, and the PS3 could have shipped 6.5M. That would be more like 1M undertracked. Have to wait and see how VGC plays this one. |
Why wait for VGC? they havent changed it when sony said 70mil. I bet Sony will give us another update soon. I think Ps3 is closer to 75mil than what people are estimating. (I will not accept that they actually think Sony shipped 800k more in the slow half of the year this year than they did in the busy half of the year last year. Especially when Ps2 sales declined 4 quarters in a row last year... how would they double from a busy quarter to a slow quater. Makes no sense). In my estimates Ps3 only needed about 1-1.3mil in October to reach 70mil and they shipped another 4.7-5mil. This would be in line with them being a million behind both last quarter and this quarter.
