| TheSource said: The September quarter figures for shipments are always somewhat bullshitty because companies want to have enough of the hot product and the big three want to make their projections / supply enough / still sell a ton of systems in Nov-Dec. That said, X360 sales were about 50% higher PS3 sales this quarter. Even with PS3 likely to beat X360 in Japan / Europe over Oct - Dec thats not enough to offset 50% this quarter, and so there is really no reason to expect PS3 to be ahead of X360 as Move is selling to the base partially and the figures for PS3 are lower than for X360. Its not like last year when there was a price cut to bring in alot of new users and the Slim to sell to old users. |
This. As my tables show in http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=113854&page=1 this quarter is almost always the one where shipments are the furthest over sell-through. Certainly going to be interesting all the same.

there was a huge discripency between vgchartz's numebers and sony's figures in June, although you did say that shipment figures tend to be "bullish" I have to disagree considering you guys adjusted you sales up around 400K for the PS3, which shows me that sony's figures are closer to the truth, because you guys don't have tracking for smaller markets.
Which is why I say it wouldn't suprise me, and I actually expect it to happen, as the sony has been touting ps3 figures to have been very high world wide, and have thrown a 20 M figure out there for all of the americas, showing that vgc may be off by a million consoles in the americas alone, that's if they didn't estimate it up from 19 to 20M by saying "nearly" when they said over 20 million consoles in their interview with FOX...
we'll see what the shipment figures say, but I expect
PS MOVE: 3.0 million world wide
PS3: 2.9 million world wide (realisticly) up to 3.6 million (due to shipping 320GB move models)

I have to agree with this. Jack was probably rounding some. Real numbers are probably more like 18-19 mil. Which would also mean a little undertracking on VGC. |
a little? More like a million or more? Like their last figures showed that VGC was down by over 2 million consoles compared to the report...
but they aren't just going to come up with fake numbers for markets they don't track, which is why I believe vgchartz did not adjust ps3 sales, that and they probably believe sony counts refurbished models as sales..

After the adjustments, VGC has sell-through down to 1,552,971 compared to Sony's shipped numbers, which is almost an identical gap with the Wii. VGC has Americas at 15,652,688 to date, with 2,292,231 units sold WW since the April-June quarter. I can pretty much guarantee that VGC will have sell-through for the quarter below sold numbers(for at least 3 consoles if not all 5) as that's just how it usually goes. If you tack on another half-million to the gap you're almost exactly at 20M units shipped in the Americas IF all of those sell-through units should have been in the Americas AND all of the shipped but not sold units are in transit to the Americas.
There's just simply no way it's 20M. If VGC is undertracking, then it would raise the sell-through numbers, but the gap to sold numbers would shrink just as much.

I hate to say it, but the kid has so crazy voodoo powers now (Leo-J). Imagine if he had those powers back in the day.
