If it were from an actual unbiased party I would but from you, no.

So I guess no one should take anything you say about Nintendo seriously.

Hubris like innovation is a foreign concept to Sony and all Playstation fans. [/thread]

Except its not selling as well in EU, as it is in NA. And the majority of that 900K is from the first week. Subsequent weeks will drop because of supply and lowered launch demand, which happens to ALL consoles.

The X1 did a better job of resupplying for Black Friday but the NPD numbers have that already. Afterward Id say my Target both recieved nearly the same amount of units (hardly any for both). Id actually go back further andy question MS on their 1mil figure considering in two sales weeks MS sold 900k. 600K first week (550k first day) in US would mean MS needed to sell just as much in europe to reach 1mil

Well, I think most people accept they were fudging that number, since it was less than 24 hrs after launch when they reported it, and Sony waited 2 days to report theirs. Less than 24hrs is not enough to get any real info on how sales are going. And given that they sold 150K in 48hrs in the UK (their best market outside of the US), 66K in AU in 3 days, and it took over 2 weeks to hit 23K in Spain (so probably ~15K-18K in the first 48 hrs), I doubt they hit 500K in the first 24.
