If PS4 was really at 20,340,000 as VGChartz said, WHY Sony have not annunced over 20.3 million? humm...


i don't know, go ask Sony... the thing is, they said over 20,200,000... the look of how small is the difference of:

 "over 20,200,000" vs 20,340,000

it can be like 140,000 to 40,000 (if you concider over 20,200,000 and under 20,300,000) diference, something thas is 1/2 or even 1/7 of Ps4 WEEK sale for march 21... this is just to small...

How acurate do you think Sony's internal tracking is? What would you give them +or - how many? 10,000? 50,000? 100,000? They said over so they were confident of that, meaning they likely gave themselves some room for what the sales could have been.

This means that while they sales might be less than what are listed on this site for the same timeframe. Most people here would have a hard time believing it's over by exactly 140,000

Sorry, but nope. 140,000 are just too much.

If PS4 was at 20,340,000, Sony was annunced more than 20,300,000, not more than 20,200,000...

Are we really hung up over a difference of 140k now? A possible (but not confirmed) miscalculation of less than 1%? I would say, great tracking from VGC, spot on even.

Over 20,200,000 and 140,000 overtracked isn't the only possibility... for all we now, the "over 20,200,000 can be anything from  20,200,001 to 20,299,999" so saying that the "over 20,200,00" is leading to a 140,000 overtracked is realy Bias... it can be something like 40,001 is the "over 20,200,000" is something like 20,299,999...and 40,001 is just to small...

for instance sony's internal tracking was 20,280,000 and they felt there internal tracking could be +- 70,000 that would be a range of 20,210,000 to 20,350,000.
So they are confident that it is over 20,200,000 but it could be even more than what are listed here.
