Since 360 was #1, the worst selling console did atleast 185.5k,

Good point!

Where is the hidden math in that? How can you get from "console a sells 371k" to "the worst selling console did atleast 185.5k" ?

It's simple; The second best selling console can't sell more than 371k so it sold less than that, which means that, given the total of 556.5k for PS3/Wii, the third best selling one sold at least 185.5k (556.5-371k = 185.5k)

371000 = 42% (MS PR) => 58% = 512000 (not 556.5k)

divide that into 360000 + 152000 (not likely, but hey: MATH!)

Microsoft's second best March for 360 unit sales I think!

March 2012 = 371K
March 2011 = 433K
March 2010 = 338K
March 2009 = 330K
March 2008 = 262K
March 2007 = 199K

Incredible...



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

No Vita game (yeah MLB, but that was definitely driven by the PS3) and no 3DS game either.



Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

Sorry to break your joyfull moment, but 360 got a price cut same time new PS3 slim was released by fall 2009.

what do you expect with vita's miniscule install base?

Microsoft's press release is oddly specific. I'm wondering if the 3DS or Vita didn't beat it in unit sales. Generally speaking, when a handheld device does better than the Xbox 360, Microsoft gets specific about where exactly it did well.
