Regardless of the sales performance on a given month for either console, the purpose of a monthly statement is to give the brightest possible outlook for your product, you can call that spin if you wish but every company, not just Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft, do it, it's a universal approach to buffering a not so great month with positives about your product, whether or not they give numbers is irrelevant.
