Funny how this conversation is an eternal loop. But, again, production and shipments are different things, don't they? And wasn't Shawn Layden an ex-CEO by the time he made this statement? I thought we should compare official data about consoles shipment units, not statements of former employers about consoles production units. |
Like an ex-CEO doesn't have relationships or access to data after his 32 years with the company. That's the number posted and confirmed by Sony. The only eternal loop is every few weeks/months someone in denial acts like a kid in a grocery store when he doesn't get his favorite cereal and uses this thread to complain about Sony.
The image above is all that matters now, beat the number or don't. It's not that big of a deal. People just need to stop whining and making shit up like "Sony won't let Nintendo win". It sounds absolutely ridiculous. Nintendo more than likely doesn't even give a shit about this number but one thing is for sure, when Sony announced over 160M it broke the hearts of a lot of online Nintendo supporters who base their entire online persona of being able to beat Sony's hardware record. it's childish and silly and they need to move on from that line of thinking.
This thread could be a way more productive if people just accepted the 160M figure, communicate with Trunks on what his threshold is for how high he's tracking PS2 and just month after month track the sales, add it up and talk about how close Switch is getting over time and if it beats it, then great celebrate. That's it, that's all people have to do at this point.
There's a poster in the Famitsu threads who tracks Japan Xbox sales week after week. He adds 165 or 250 or whatever the number is in an ongoing chart and just tracks it. No one gives him shit and he does this reliably every week and he's happy to do it to the show the totals. That's all that has to be done at this point with Switch 1 sales compared to PS2 numbers. The point is the sour grapes posting has got to stop at this point. It makes the thread a laughing stock with the low quality of posting going on. 160M is real and no amount of complaining or closing their eyes to the number is going to change that.
