[QUOTE="heretrix"][QUOTE="Kakarot00769"][QUOTE="heretrix"][QUOTE="Kakarot00769"] i stopped posting links from sites in terms of numbers for consoles sold worldwide ,reason being is that if a fanboys console is getting destroyed by another console ,they will claim foul and call the site unreliable and some poster will defend the console of his favorite and call the site reputable and it will be an on going cycle , so we are not going that route ...theres only 1 solution when it comes to worldwide figures sold .only time will tell the story and by the end of the year and once all 3 console manufacturers announce their worldwide figures ,the nearest competitor to the wii will be behind by @ least 10 million units

That isn't answering my question at all. HOW DO YOU KNOW NINTENDO COUNTS UNITS SOLD TO CUSTOMERS AND NOT SHIPPED TO RETAILERS LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE?
If you are going to post a definitive statement about something, you must expect to be called on it. And your source must be ironclad as to remove any doubt about your statement. This shouldn't be hard unless your source is suspect.
I wouldn't post a damn thing here unless I had proof. I know people get annoyed when asked for proof, but I don't see a problem with it, especially with the amount of suspect data that is casually thrown about in this forum.
My request has nothing to do with me being a fanboy, I am interested in knowing the truth, which is why I asked.
i am not here to prove anything to anyone ,you want to see worldwide figures ,do a google search (like i did) once u find the sites then it's up to you if you find them credible or not ,do i care if you dont believe me and the numbers i posted ? of course not ,but once you google who is truly winning the console war you will notice a trend from various sites and the answer is very clear ..p.s nintendo (most of the time @ least) will mention either their numbers are shipped (sold to retailers) or sold (sold to gamers) during their quarterly reports
So your response to someone asking you to clarify a statement you made is "Go search Google"? Why'd you even bother to answer in the first place? It's nice to know you have no proof though.
the proof that you will only accept and will not deny is that when every gaming site on the planet announces wii's lead of over 10 million units over it's nearest competitor by the end of the year ,so just wait ..we will get there
What does that have to do with anything? My question wasn't about the numbers. I could really CARE LESS. It was about the method of retrieving the data to arrive at those numbers. The more this goes on the more I'm convinced you have no frigging idea. I asked you a simple question and you try and cloud the issue.I asked you nicely TWICE and you respond to me with some nonsense about fanboys not believing you. Forget I asked, as it seems you don't have an intelligent response to what I thought, was a pretty simple request. I'm far from a fanboy of any faction here, I have owned all of the consoles and handhelds at one time or another. I'm just looking for reliable data. You have none. Good day.
