According to Eurogamer Holidays sales for Ps3 are 3.9m between 21st November and 5th January... We have it at 4.6M wich means is overtracked by 0.7m.

Meanwhile Xbox 360 is undertracked by 1.6 Milions or 800K depending if MS used Shipped or Sold.

Kinect is Undertracked by about 2.5M or 1.5M depending if MS used Shipped or Sold.

So yeah, Xbox won 2011 easily.

Well tomorrow is NPD Day, its gonna be fun.

PS3 sales weren't 3.9m WW, only some countries in Europe, America and Japan I think. 

North America, Europe/Pal (meaning all by the sounds of it) and Asia. Covers a massive patch WW.

PAL Countries - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PAL_region

So it doesn't include Latin America, France, Russia, Belarus, a few other small European countries, Africa and Oceania. Also, are stocks for BF week shipped  "just in time" or do they start shipping in advance? Because starting shipping only on 21st November for that huge week, so just at the beginning of that week itself, looks quite frantic.

Well we will have to wait and see... Im pretty much sure that in 2009 the numbers were worldwide, i dont know why they wouldnt be now...

Can you edit your table mate ?? I´d be aprreciated.

Note : MS said >66M Sold, wich might mean 67M shipped, yet we have it at 64.6. 

Also Kinect seems not have been adjusted yet :p

Looks like adjustments go back to Dec 10th.
Dec 10th now 198,940 in 360 favor
Dec 17th now 335,445 in 360 favor
Dec 24th now 361,687 in 360 favor
Dec 31st now 748 in PS3 favor



Its libraries that sell systems not a single game.

Adjustments, gap for 2011 is 62k~ in PS3's favour, last week was less than a 1k win for PS3, not like some had arrogantly predicted.

adjusted that fast?but i guess we still need to wait for shipment numbers

Numbers were just adjusted, Seece posted them, also in this thread, XB360 ~180k up, PS3 ~60k down, PS3 lead decreased from ~300k to ~60k.

So even more a statistical tie. Two twin winners (and one loser, but this thread didn't even mention it  ).

So arrogant PS3 fans were punished, arrogant XB360 fans were punished, and arrogant Baron Ballmer was punished too! Isn't it fabulous? It's like the typical American movie, the villain always loses!

VGChartz Hardware data for the period 22nd Nov 2009 to 02nd Jan 2010:


 

Console PS3
Total
4,709,922

Likely ~4.9m WW from 21st Nov to 05th Jan 2010

Edit : Nevermind lol 

Seems really strange, maybe Sony was only counting December and not November.



SWORDF1SH on 11 January 2012

What I want to know is why hasnt an article about ps3 sales been put on vgchartz when sony announced them even though they was announced a day before ms's and a ms sales article was put up on here almost instanly after they was announced.
