Has microsft ever given number not rounded off in a press release? If microsoft tracked, eg, 1.1mln, vgchartz overtracked by 18%. Normal error is 10% it's not that far off.

More importantly kinect is selling out, right now how much they will ship they will sell. They know that, probably that is the reason they said "more than 1mln sold to consumer" .

To the people that keep comparing with move, sony never gave any number for the move controllers sold to consumer. Maybe they can't because as we know move hasn't sold out. Not even in the saudi arabia, that usually are accounted for a big chunk of what people call "sony supremacy in europe", yes we all know saudi arabia is part of europe :) If I'm not mistaken they didn't even detailed if in the shipped figure move 1st controller, move camera and move 2nd controller were counted separately.

Not what I've seen reported.
Aren't you mixing?

And for the crap about saudi arabia helping the PS3 in europe, did you ever check that there is sales numbers for every country in europe? France, Germany, Spain, Italy, UK, etc...
Details are there, they add up, and Sony is not selling more only in Saudi Arabia. It's selling more everywhere but UK.

1.3M or 1M it's still very good!

And I still think it'll sell like crazy for christmas.

Which, for something without any outstanding game, is impressive.

I think the same of the Move, by the way, I never thought these pieces of hardware(move and kinect) would sell so fast...

I'm seeing it selling out on every us online store, and preliminary data were essentially us data. Even if it doesn't sell out in europe (and I'm pretty sure it's close to sell out in some countries like UK) move hasn't sold out in ANY country,  not even japan. And people keep making comparisons with move and its shipping figure in which we don't even know what they are actually counting as a move unit.

About the "saudi arabia crap", did you even check the local charts, if you take out non EU countries from EMEAA data, you won't see any "sony domination". Maybe you'll have PS3 ahead, but no domination. So at least call it "developing economies sony domination" :)

Just try to type "move sold out" in google.
I know it works too with kinect sold out, don't worry.

Just europe, Sony is selling more PS3 than X360, for a long time. So I think that we can safely assume that it's still dominating there.

I don't use that method, I simply check a bunch of online stores. Amazon.co.uk . de .fr everything in stock. Amazon.com wand available only from the sellers, navigation controller and $99 starter kit in stock. So where was I wrong assuming it hasn't sold out?

Seriously though, that's a bit lower than expected for now, but it will likely be a big hit on Black Friday.

Really???? Go ask Seece how many people expected it to sell this much. LMAO!



I LOVE paying for Xbox Live! I also love that my love for it pisses off so many people.

Kinect is a hit... 1.3 or 1.1 didn't change that.

Just 10 days and over 1 million was amazing.

Ah, but sales prediction threads here in VGChartz always end up in some serious crow eating no matter what. I can just imagine it
