eh, outsold the New 3DS... I'm skeptic they aren't putting a spin on this...

Geoff Keighly saying it directly on twitter implies not Sony PR spin. Keighly will be getting numbers directly I'm thinking, and he has no reason to ignore 3DS when it comes to announcing #1 hardware. If Keighly was only thinking home console I would have expected hium to tweet "PS4 #1 home console in Feb NPD".

It's still possible the early announcements are "forgetting" about 3DS because the buzz really is all about PS4 vs Xb one. But since it's not just Sony PR claiming #1 I am leaning towards the unexpected result of PS4 > 3DS.

Unless PS4 sold a shit ton more than we expected (how could it since VGC has the PS4 LTD at 20.2 million in exactly the same timeframe as Sony so there would only be tweaks to the country balances rather than having to find a few 100K of extra sales), that suggests N3DS didn't do so well as we thought; which is not too great for Nintendo.
