| V-r0cK said: I knew the XB1S would sell well but I'll just wait for the actual numbers to come out for this time period. 989% sounds great, but trying to do the math and just seems somewhat off, or they're trying to spin this in a way that it sounds a lot better than it actually does since they're not giving any real numbers. Can someone explain what "sales rise 989 per cent week-on-week" mean? Does that mean a total of 989 per cent increase from a span of like +2 weeks? Like 500% one week than 498% the next? Ah just give me real numbers! xD |
I made a large post about it but it just means that the sales one week are 11x the number the previous week, but that is to be expected when a hardware revision like the X1S is being launched, it would be stupid for someone to have bought the old model the previous week unless you knew literally nothing about gaming since you are paying the same money for less so obviously the people who would have naturally been buying X1 units for the last number of weeks would have been on the decline in anticipation of the X1S and as such the big jump doesn't mean it is up 1000% above the baseline of X1 sales, more so means it has jumped up 1000% from the previous week when only derps would have bought the console.
