Forums - Sales - America's 8th Jan up

So PS3 shortages were not so important? Dude find me any basic bundle online that is out of stock, except the Arcade and Splinter Cell one.I know that in real stores there are shortages and it's normal (to have more there than online).

But beware remember the common argument dude, "arcade bundle are a small % of X360 sales, 90% of the sales are the 299$ bundles, PS3 high price doesn't mean anything, X360 is selling better with the same price, few Arcade bundles are sold, all the rest is the one as high priced as the lowest PS3's bla bla bla"

But this is out of topic.

You're right, I don't even know what any of that post means, you're just posting vitrolic rubbish now, I didn't say anywhere they wernt "important" (doesn't even make sense) just that the situations were different, hence the different attitudes towards them.

I see you like to make up rubbish, assume and twist things, so I'll leave you to that.

EMEAA- PS3 IS OVER TRACKED. 360 HAVING SHORTAGES AND THE WHOLE STORY WILL UNFOLD IN THE MONTHS TO COME. WHEN DO SHIPMENTS COME OUT?

WHO WANTS TO MAKE A BET THAT PS3 IS OVERTRACKED IN EMEAA BY VGCHARTZ?


LMAO!!!!! ohh god when 360 fans said that january adjustments will be hillarious they weren't kidding look @ this meltdown.

I've been saying this for months. So there is no meltdown. I bet you it is.   VGCHARTZ have no clue as to what sales are in EMEAA for ps3. they over estimated sales. Watch and see. the last time they adjusted them up was the last shipments. So they can be way off. this is like a test period. 

BUT FUNNY YOU GO FOR THE 360 FANS ANGLE AND YOU ARE NOT A SONY FAN THAT HAS HAD MANY, MANY MELTDOWNS? LMAO AT YOUR BIASED POINTS THAT YOU HAVE DONE OVER AND OVER. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN.

SO MAKE A BET!

lol fun fact, in 2010 when there were shortages for PS3, so many posters were screaming liez, my gamestop haz 500 in the basement etc etc. I'm sincerely glad that bs isn't happening this time around

The PS3 shortages were less believeable because the situations were completely different. PS3's were due to those chips, and it took till June to get them sorted, all the while PS3 stock still remained relatively high anyway.

While those shortages would have had an effect on sales, they wouldn't be on same scale as these shortages because of the circumstances.

your crystal ball must be pretty awesome to have

fact of the matter is, w/e the reason behind them might be, ps3 had shortages, it was proved, it was mentioned by the media but here we were, people posting one pic after the other about how they saw ps3's and how sony are lying and trying to mislead ppl yada yada yada....it's just total nonsense, which I'm happy that isn't taking place this time around

whether it would have had a big effect or not, who knows. We would never know. But hey w/e you like to think of it, be my guest.

I'm not saying they wernt real, even I found them suspect at one point. But don't ignore the facts. The reasons WHY people thought PS3 shortages were fake, were because PS3 was still selling relatively high and didn't see massive drops after xmas that indicated shortages, that and all shipments ect were pretty postitive for Sony. The shortages lasted for 6 plus months, so again, compared to these 2 months for 360, it was less noticeable. Also the reasons for the shortages are different.

People arnt arguing this time, because it's just stupid to denie their arnt shortages with the info we have. I don't think we really knew why PS3 was in shortage for a few months into the year (could be wrong on that)

So don't chime on like the situations are similar.


not sure why you even think one situation is worse than the other, cuz we absolutely no nothing of it. please spare me the random comments being stated as facts. For all we know ps3 situation might have been worse than the 360 one now.

Anywho not sure what your problem is tbh. I said such whiny threads and posts are not around now, which is GREAT NEWS! I absolutely hated them so this is great news for me, if I wanted to mess with fans like you I could have easily gone out, taken some pics of 360 bundles and such and made a thread on it. not that desperate.

Let's just agree that the ommission of such crap is a good thing k?

... huge shortages, high shortages, big shortages, whatever make you not divert your attention on these kind of things just to write more lines instead of argumenting. You were the one who assumed I said X360 is selling what it should have sold.

Time to sleep for me.

Not really, last nov NPD ps3 was overtracked I accepted it unlike you ROFL!

you've been saying it for months now?? LOL  you must be feeling really mad then cause just a couple of months ago ps3 was adjusted up massively in EMEAA and up till now your "overtracked" claim hasn't happened LOL!.

And ps3 being overtracked in EMEAA whats your proof? none? funny you don't think 360 is overtracked either only ps3 LOL!



Mark my worlds:

In the nexts couple weeks we gonna see PS360 tied at first place WW and Wii few tens of thousands below at 3th.

I didn't say either or situation was worse, I was just pointing the differences, and why they caused such a difference of a opinion, which was your main focal point, people not bitching about these shortages. You seem to have completely overlooked all the valid points I made.

People questioned early 09 360 shortages, including me, so it isn't an exclusive anti PS3 thing.

nope I'm saying reasons beihind the shortages vary, obviously, I knew that even before you pointed it out. What I'm saying is it really doesn't matter when the outcome are the same, shortages, which kinda sucks. But we won't know for 'sure' how much sales were lost cuz of shortages for either console. So that's a useless argument, only backed with speculations

I would love to have the links to those threads, at least one or two, about 360 shortages being fake. If not nope, not the same treatment. But again, it's good such bs isn't around now and I hope it stays the same in the future for ALL consoles. This is all I have to say on the matter
