FishyJoe said: The DS has a software shipment number of 370m, 127m difference between VGC. The DS library has close to 600 games that aren't tracked at all. The DS has 9 missing million sellers, as Nintendo reported 57 million sellers. See I can play this game all day long. It's pointless. All systems have unprepresented titles and you can find contrasting data to argue that each is undertracked. I don't see conclusive data that one system is being undertracked more than another. |
True , I shoudlent have brought the total software sales figures , when we where talking only about Others ... that was my bad . But you cant honestly bealive that the PSP has an attch ratio of 2:1 in Others while the DS has an attch ratio of 20:1 , because at this point thats the tracked numbers difference , and as much as you want , you cant convince me . Also , lets dont forget that the DS has an over 2:1 hardware lead .
Now if we part that 370 million in 2 , then we get 185 million .
The PSP has 110 million .
The DS has an attach ratio of ~ 5.3:1
The PSP ~ 3.33
Yes the difference is huge but still far less then 10:1
Now lets say that from that 110 million ( judging by the fact that the US data is accurate ) 54 million are from the US , and in Japan 19 million , then where is the rest > 35 million software .
If that number comes from Others than the attach rate for the PSP there should be ~ 3:1 right ?
Now if the DS is undertracked as severly in Others as the PSP than the DS has to have an attach rate of 30:1 =============> that the DS had sold ~ 750 million software in Others alone , and lets be honest thats impossible .
