In fact it sold 4.1 millions: http://mediakick.org/2010/11/30/move-salesmove-sells-over-4-1-million-units/

Except for the fact that Sony are buffing their numbers by including every move controller, nav controller and ps eye as an individual sku. For example:


2 Move controllers ( ) 1 Nav Controller ( ) 1 PS Eye = 4 Moves Sold?

eh...

click the article and read what it says

I don't know if your joking or not, but the article specifically says that they've sold 4.1 million Move Wands and that the Nav controller and PSEye aren't included in that number (unless it's in bundles that include the wand).



Bet with Conegamer and AussieGecko that the PS3 will have more exclusives in 2011 than the Wii or 360... or something.

I suggest you follow the link and ready the associated article. It will clarify matters for you. Your above assumption is wrong.

Edit: Dangit! Too slow again. Doobie_wop was too fast for me, it seems.



As a matter of fact the link says forbidden 403 for me.

Those are shipped unit. Pacther theory is believable as long as they don't give us some numbers for the move starter kit. But we already know it didn't sell that much in the US because there is bundled with sports champions.

BAM! 4.1 million Move controllers Shipped, not sold. They are only "sold" to retailers.



The illusion of success is the first step towards actual success. This is not some new thing for the game industry. MS, sony and nintendo have done it numerous times before and will do it again in the future.

2 Move controllers (Plus) 1 Nav Controller (Plus) 1 PS Eye = 4 Moves Sold?

eh...

They are just including wands and starter packs, get your facts straight



So I am NOT a Pachter hater, nor do I beleive that he pulls these statements, completely out of his ass.  So the question I have is, what evidence could he have that would support, in his mind, this theory?

Hmmm.
