I'm just surprised neither MS or Sony have said "we have shipped 80m!!" yet....




Yeah I think the consoles might be overtracked a little bit. I guess we have to wait on their quarterly reports which is within weeks for both.


how will that help you?


What?

what i said.

How will the quarterly reports help you know if they are BOTH overtracked or not?


vgchartz had ~79.5m sold for PS3, if official shipped figures mention ~80m for the quarter ending september, that means its probably overtracked a bit, unless there is no supply chain.


Sony dont give lifetime shipment figures.  Nobody knows the total shipment figures for the PS3.  Thats the point.

The bundling of PS2 and PS3 figures for that period in 2012 and 2013 will forever muddy the waters unless they give a definitive number for the very end of a specific quarter.


Well everyone knows that. The point is that if they dont announce the milestone soon then the financial reports is the perfect time to do so, it doesn't have to be specific, just a brief mention that it passed 80 million. If they were to report the milestone after their report, what would that mean? It reached 80 million after the report. Which helps me know its overtracked here. Assuming they will celebrate 80 million, just like they did with 70 million.
