I BELI3VE TOO!

1. I'm not trolling.  I'm not a troll and my posting history should prove that, but whatever.

2. "The company expects to exceed its target of sales of 15 million PS3s in its fiscal year, aided by “strong demand” in Europe and North America, House said in a Bloomberg Television interview in Rome."

He's talking about America right there in the OP that was copied from the original Bloomberg story.  We know that the PS3 was down in September YoY from the tidbits of info released about the NPD numbers, so this strong demand that he refers to cannot be substantiated since these numbers aren't public anymore and Sony hasn't released them.

3. Is ANYTHING that I stated about the inability to accurately track sales of Move and the subsequent release of these HIGH numbers incorrect?

For the record to those asking, 2006 was the year that many Sony representatives are on record using numerous methods of dishonest FUD to stall the sales of their competitors and ultimately (at the time) had nothing to back it up with.  They've earned a lot in the last several years with the reduced price, improved gaming library and sales resurgence.  But fears of Move turning into more FUD seem to only be realized by unsubstantiated statements like these.

But we also know that the ps3 is up week on week vs last month's NPD and has outsold the Wii for the month for the first time since... last year?

And while SCEE may comment on worldwide SCE goals from time to time (in this case, a figure that's been tossed around for over six months now), when have they ever commented on another region's specific figures?

I think you're reading far too much into the fact that an SCEE head only discussed Move's sales for his own territory.  And even his figures for Europe weren't very exact - "somewhere in the region of 1.5 million units" - implying he may not be fully up-to-date on the totals.   It's quite different from basically saying "plans haven't changed".

And for all we know the interviewer specifically asked House about Sony's WW year end targets, which is why they were brought up in the first place.

You're trying to pull an awful lot from what isn't there.

Wow.

MM said all I pretty much needed to say.

Thanks!

for every move software sold, a consumer could have purchased 4 PS move controllers, meaning that if there are 200-300K Sports champions games sold to consumers, there could be 2-4 PS move controllers sold just for one software.

In fact, sony isn't tracking one move "console" per household, but are in fact tracking each move sold...

it's not out of the realm of possibility that consumer sales are over a million in europe, as the move has been hard to find everywhere in europe, giving one the impression that the actual consumer figure for individual move controllers is very close to 1.5 million.

Buhahahahhaha someone actually pulled out MS PR as evidence against Sony? OHMYGAWDSOMUCLAWLZ

again people try way too hard

honestly I don't even know why people get so offended when a compnay says something about how well a product is doing or how bad another company is doing. I personally find it entertaining. People on the forums whining, over analyzing, arguing who is right and who is not, is even more entertaining.

I said it already in the PSmove news, the haters always have a new goal post.

first PSmove will flop then PSmove is still doing bad then (insert excuse here).

smilar to

2006(ps3 haz no gamez) to 2007(ps3 salez is bad) to2008(ps3 will be discontinued) to 2009(PS3 not making profit) 2010(ps3 is????)

see the trend? new goal post FTW!!!!

Its because Sony does well in countries outside of the main ones. This is their secret weapon, just as Europe was their secret weapon with the PS1.

I really hope their supporting little or developing countries way more than Ninty and MS pays off for them.  Imagine a large market in Brazil, China, etc.?  This could help them next gen. *prays* 

For instance, in the Middle East, Africa and Asia this week, PS2 sold the same amount as Wii.  O_o
