This is silly. The stats clearly show that for a "3rd generation, highly anticipated" console - the PS3 is doing very badly in Japan, so-so in the US (and will probably do ok in Europe).
The fact that unit sales are so far below shipment figures - and that PS3's are easy to find on shelves (almost anywhere) indicates this beyond any form of argument or discussion. End of story.
Why are 360s sales numbers so far below shipped? It well documented that M$ said they shipped 10.4 million by the end of 2006 when actual sales figures were much less, around 8.5 to 9 million maybe.
EVERY COMPANY DOES THIS. Every single company has shipped more than they ever sell. PSP shipped 20 million sometime back in the summer but didn't sell 20 million till like December. Try picking on everyone for a change.
