Yes, this mystery needs an answer.

I've heard ioi say Others/other is supposed to be mainly South Korea, Taiwan and Hong Kong for those X360 sales. But knowing that these are extreme PC countries, I'd say that any numbers above 5000 per week for the X360 need a good explanation to be believable.

You can take out South Korea : Fishy Joe posted recently lifetime sales for the 360 and the PS3 and neither were that impressive http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=25853


Ahh... I had a feeling the Korea number would be quite low. 150k (S Korea) compared to the total of 1,100.000 X360s in the Others/other cathegory doesn't explain much.

All of middle-east, korea, india n stuff like that

"n stuff like that", hehe. "Stuff" like the Middle east accounts for 0 X360/PS3s sold because they aren't officially released there (all sales are imports from other regions). Maybe ioi counts them as sales for Others/other, but in any case the Middle east and India are very very small next-gen console markets.


Both 360 & PS3 have been officially released in the Middle East. PS3 sold 10k at launch.
