| Puppyroach said: I myself don't take the AMD news fo absolute truth, but saying 27m is just wishful thinking. I think it sucks that MS are combining shipments, just like Sony did with PS3+PS2, but just going by shipments point toward MS shipping north of 12M. Or do you think 360 hardly dropped anything YOY and absolutely pulverized PS3? Because that would be the only other logical (however unlikely) answer. But I am guessing you don't like that idea either :). |
Shipments point towards MS shipping approximately 10m - 10.5m with about 1m in retail and warehouses. 9m sold-through.
It's more likely that AMD really did mean almost 30m shipped to retailers, but quickly realized that meant Xbone sold less than 10m, so they damage-controlled by saying that shipped means "sold-through", knowing that either metric would still be the truth. Both 29m and 27m are "close" to 30m.
