The best part is this people thinking that Sony put all the units they had to NA and will send 2 weeks of production for Europe... if that was the case and next week we see a launch bigger than 500k there and some more ks in NA then we can be relieved because Sony will meet demand really fast producing 1M+ per month right now (I don't think the factories are anywere close to 500k month right now, still refining production process).

It's more along the lines of how the supply is allocated; Sony allocated a certain number to NA launch and they have allocated a certain number to launches elsewhere. Where did anyone claim that Sony sold all their stock in the NA launch? I doubt anyone on this forum has the exact information of when production started on each system, the amount produced, and how much they each had for launch. So unless we have more information, it is really hard to claim otherwise.

The fact is they both sold around a million units at their initial launches; other than nitpicking the little things, one million units for one company is not greater than one million units for another company. Xbox sold well over what most on this site hoped for; the only reason to downplay this is based on one's agenda and bias.
