Forums - Sony - SCEA $499 PS3 Boosts Sales 135% at Top 5 Retailers

Regarding the increase for June:

June was a 5 week month for NPD. As such, shouldn't it have seen a 25 percent increase in sales, and not 21? The answer  is yes -- it sold less per week this month than it did last month. Nice trick though!

Same with the Wii. The only one that actually increased was the 360, with a 3% increase over all 5 weeks.

Am i the only one that thinks its sad that all the posts yet no one has yet to do the math right ? just ball part figures.

Maybe math is the achilles heel of gamers.

^That was kind of obvious. The question is, how much?

I was being facetious, teasing the Sony fanboys for the PS3 failing to pass 100K last month


If you're gonna tease, do it the right way



Perhaps grammar is yours.

 Yeah, that had already been mentioned by Diomedes: it's about a 10 percent drop in Wii sales, to be specific. I hadn't seen anyone comment on the PS3 yet though, and this was a PS3 thread :p

^I said that the companies would be spinning, but I guess I just did not specify. I ignore half of the stuff Diomedes says.



My eyes get all glazed over whenever math is invovled.

 It's not like Nintendo wouldn't be spinning if they were in Sony's position. It just so happens that Nintendo is dominating -- so when they say: "Hey, we're dominating," it actually happens to be a true, purely by coincidence. They'd probably figure out a way to say basically the same thing even if this generation had ended up being a re-run of the GC era.
