Well, technically, 88% of their territory is in North America. But people will get offended with anything.

They actually call that a 183% increase though...
e.g. 100,000 * .83 (83%)= 83,000
e.g. 100,000 * 1.83 (183%) = 183,000
That is what they meant by 245% --- a 2.45 multiplier, but eitherway, they were off.
Well, I now only have access to a PS3 & 360...Plan on buying a wii soon (lol, if I can ever find one available!) but will probably wait until some of the major RPG's come out like Dragon Quest & Tales, etc.
Anyhow, I'm so far behind in games to play that I'm not in a huge hurry (lol, haven't even gotten a chance to finish God of War II yet!)

That isis kinda funny, considering they want to be known as central americans, but they all want to come live in the US? How ironic...take pride in where you are from, but don't want to live there. In regards to this topic, clearly this is some sort of huge spin, playing with the wording of things and the numbers. It is fun to read a sony press release, because if you don't read it VERy carefully ( or even if you do, because they have just flat out lied before instead of twisting words) you will get completely contradicting information.
Currently Playing:
PS4 - Killzone:SF and Assasins Creed 4
XBox One: BF4, CoD:Ghosts, Dead Rising 3, Forza 5
Changing channels with my voice: priceless!!!

what do you mean? it was what they claimed sales had increased by using last years Black Friday week as the base.

If that's the case, maybe they should retake maths? Increase means increase.
