His math accepts 70%=90% or reducing the gap growth as reducing the gap.


Total X1s sold in the US : 6846751

Total PS4s sold in the US : 7634660

6846751/7634660 = ~ 0.9087 

0.9087 * 100 = ~ 90.9 %.

X1 never dropped below 90 % in the US, it actually increased by a bit the gap, went from 90 % to 90.1 yesterday, and it shrinked a bit, 90.8 % now.

 

Thank you.

Last year by October it was a lot bellow 90% cumulatively and had 50% months.

 

This month (march NPD) it sold like 70% of ps4. And it seems Ltd it is 89,76% so less than 90%. Where are you taking your numbers from? Still believing in vgc?

I've heard the same last year, i heard it this year as of right now and i am very sure it will happen next year as well, and the year after.

It's a boring, broken record player.

It appears Math is not your strong point. Using your own numbers, let's do some basic math, shall we?

6846751/7634660 = 0.8968 (rounded up)

0.8968 * 100 = 89.7% (rounded up).

The X1 HAS dropped below 90% in the US even with your faulty logic. Not only has it not be able to decrease the overall sales gap, but the rate at which the gap is increasing has actually increased.

Way to captain the failboat.

PS4 outsold XBO by +100,000 this month.

We will have to wait and see what happens in the rest of the year. In theory XOne still has the advantage in the U.S. with Halo 5, Tomb Raider etc.

I think theDrill is onto something. All you have to do is keep changing the math and the numbers to fit your argument that you are trying to make...

Oh, wait... That is how everyone does it here, it's just that thedDrill can't find any numbers that truly support his argument in some way.

I applaud theDrill's efforts to change how basic math works though.



It is near the end of the end....

Today is the day when all is revealed.

He is really Steve Ballmer.  He has to have something to do all day!

Could be this. But seems more like Mattrick's logic.
