I thought Canada had a lot more than 40 million....i mean i know it is relatively sparsely populated but then it is the second largest country by area after Russia.

About 33 Million.  So American needed to have 6-7 million babies between last summer and now.

Well unless you throw in like... Cuba and parts of Mexico.

A) The E-Mail specifically states PS3, not playstation family

B) You don't know what they're announcing. Could be, could not be... We don't know

C) Uh... duh? That's PR 101, use good numbers and percents... Point?

D) Um... PSP in Japan, after the slim and Crisis Core came out?

E) Umm... this site is only 10,000 strong. There are over 340 million americans. This sit counts for less than .001 percent of the population. And all members aren't American.


While your point still stands, the 300 millionth American was born last summer. As such, I find it very hard to believe that we've had 40+ million babies since.

 He may be referring to Canadians as well I mean they do technically reside in North America :)


 Add 105 millions more from Mexico .

I still say they are comparing last month to this month's sales.

There were two percentages,

245% increase was from last years Black Friday
298% increase was from the introduction of the 40G week (ending the 3rd November)



Just don't tell Mexico. Everyone i've met of mexican descent takes offense if you say they are from North America, they perfer to be known as Central Americans.

Not sure if this is generally true or just from my personal expierence.



I wonder if VGchartz just really undertracked the PS3. I really expected the PS3 to be matching about what the 360 did.



The 245% was not week to week.... jesus.



Thanks to Blacksaber for the sig!
