Unfortunately when you do this you will note that the PS3 often outsells Xbox360 2:1 or 3:1 in this "mystical rest of the world". I highly doubt that this is true. Particularly this week it is extremely weird, PS3 even outsells 3DS more than 3:1

It is true, the playstation brand is just extremely strong compared to everything else in those other countries. This isn't a hard concept to understand.

XBox is particularly strong in the US. Not even in BF week does it outsell the PS3 by 2:1. What makes you think the PS3 outsells the XBox by 2-3:1 in the mystical rest of the world every week (with absolute numbers much higher than Japan)?

Because the US is one country while the other areas are multiple countries. Add them all up and you see that PS3 is just more favored by the majority. It would be wierd if it wasn't like that and suddenly every country that isn't the US or Uk decided they liked xbox more.
