Some GAFers are running around claiming that U.S. sales ofless than one million apiece in November would be a "undeniable disaster" and indicative of an early grave for either. I simply do not understand this logic. Putting aside the fact that the 360 didn't break a million in the NPD until November 2010, both combined have sold 70% more than PS3/360 in their first year. Makes me wonder if these people remember the first few NPDs of gen 7. For context:
Nov 2006 360 511K / PS3 196K
Nov 2007 360 770K / PS3 466K
Nov 2008 360 836K / PS3 378K
Nov 2009 360 819K / PS3 710K
I'm personally betting either has a good shot at breaking a million this Nov. But it'll be far, far from a disaster if they don't. Thoughts?
