the gap is still widening, even if the other consoles sell better than they were.
if the difference between sales of console a and console b increases, example 1.2 m to 1.3m versus 2.2m to 2.4m, the difference between total sold has INCREASED, even if the difference is reduced to being just one console per month sold more that the competition, the gap has increased.
for the gap to be decreasing/closing, the competition needs to sell MORE per month and reduce the difference in consoles sold.
simply selling more but less overall isnt closing the gap, its just lowering the rate at which youre being outsold.
look at it this way, im opening a door, you pull on the handle to try and close it, the speed at which its opening is reduced but im stronger so its still opening. as long as the door is swinging in my direction, no matter how fast or how slow, it will never be closing, to close it has to swing in the other direction, get it?
Sorry if reality offends any of you.
