Funny, I don't remember many from this thread complaining when Sony started hiding their numbers last gen, making those invested in console sales have to do guesswork on all Playstation hardware numbers.

And yeah wow I guess MS did it because they were losing the hardware race. Unlike the other two generations where they shared hardware shipments, they must have won those. Oh wait...


I wasn't on these forums back in the day, but Sony has never completely hidden hardware numbers. The closest they have been was for Fiscal Year 2012 (and only 2012) where they combined them with PS2 shipments, like MS has been doing all this gen, and like Sony did again in the first few quarters of this gen. We still got overall Playstation shipments from Sony in 2012, and we got the exact PS3 shipments for all the other years.

And the article says it doesn't mean the end of hardware figures. So when they release FY reports or never update us on hardware again then the people upset about this will have a point. An irrelevant point, but a point nonetheless.
