I don't think Sony in particular needs to do much artificial spinning here.

Yes, the Wii clobbered both the 360 and PS3 by ridiculous margins. Yes, the PS3 was outsold by the 360 by a tiny margin. Yes, week-on-week sales are down from last month.

But still, the PS3 sold more than twice as many units this March compared to last March. That's not crazy spin, that's truth, and it's a valuable truth. Most systems in the PS3's position at this point in a lifespan (i.e. third place by a sizable margin) are dying slow deaths, but that clearly isn't happening to the PS3.

 


 The Voice of Reason is always a great thing around here.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials
