Interesting the overall notion of some: X360 is currently supply constrained every single week, every single place, and PS3 overshipped since Sony likes to produce consoles just Because.


What I am wondering is this.

Back when we got the last set of financials I believe PS3 numbers also showed ~2M or more shipped than sold with PS3 having supply problems and when people brought it up we were told that it makes sense because you have countries all over the world carrying stock as well as some of those shipped units being on ships, etc... en route to retailers.

Now we have the same situation only a bit different. Now we have the PS3 ~2M or more and the reason is because they are not supply contrained any longer, which to me makes the previous excuse making little sense and making even less sense because of the other issue I have...

360 is now supposedly supply contrained and has only ~300-500k on store shelves and probably nothing en route to retailers?

 

It seems like the excuse shot down last time became valid this time.

 

Can someone help it make more sense for me, I would appreciate it. It all just seems a bit odd to me.

I wonder about that target of 15 million PS3s shipped. It has to mean a price drop to $250, doesn't it?

Yes, it includes the "Sony Computer Entertainment" which includes the studios that they own
