I just bought one today, I did my contribution.

Check your receipt. Did they charge you for 2 million systems?

No, but I may have contributed a .01 percent of Junes sales numbers for th ePS3.

Isn't the PS3 being outsold by a hefty margin every month by both the 360 and Wii? Last i checked this was how it was. Seeing as this is true...i guess that would put the 360 around 11-12.5 million by now. Possibly more.

well vgcharts is just fine by me. most cows use that site enough when it plays in there favor. so there u go. PS3 has only sold 3.5 million. VGcharts uses numbers and estimates from NPD and other reliable sources. are the off maybe. but to be off by 2 million i highly doubt it. atleast not this early. Once again 360 would have to be at 13-15 million and Wii would have to be at 10-11 million for those numbers to make sense.

Sony "Shipped" (i.e.: manufactured) 5.5 million

They "sold to retailers" around 3.6 million.

The ps3 doesn't look like such a bad decision by sony afterall huh?

I mean when you consider all the awesome games it has later this year as well as the price drop its most likely gonna be getting its not hard to predict that the 360 will be very close to being surpassed by it come spring 2008.

Well its still way too early to say sales will continue this way, i dont want it to fail by any means...i just dont think it will have any where near the success of the ps1 and 2.

I really doubt 5.5 million sold. I thought it had just recently hit roughly 3.5 million sold?CassiusGaius
I think ti was actually 3.6 in stores with 5.5 million shipped (in factory warehousesand in transit) And looking at japanese and NDP sales for april and may I dont think those 2 million had sold...

but If you want to think it has actually sold 5.5 mil be my guest, but it wont make it true.

try 3.5 million or 3.7 million at best. Accept that. The console has done poorly in US and Japan. 2 huge markets. and in Europe it has been outsold by the 360 and Wii every month with the exception of the PS3 launch month. The 360 is in a slump and outselling it. and the wii is a runaway hit. so i highly doubt PS3 sold 5.5 million units without the Wii being at 10-11 million and the 360 being at 12-15 million.

to everyone 5.5 million PS3's sold mean 5.5 consoles manufactured and distributed no sold to consumers. in addition that goes the same for the 11 million 360's and 8 million wii's

If you add up the NPD and media crate numbers, the slap on another million for Europe, the PS3's maybe sitting at 4 million, and that's being generous.

Remember cows, the Wii's been out-selling the PS3 by 2 to 1 in the US and 5 to 1 in Japan since launch, give or take. When you're getting beat that badly, you're not a mere 1.5ish mil away from the competition.

Probably not. It won't top 8m until the end of this month, most likely. I expect around 12-13 million before the end of the year.

what are you basing that on? VG charts has been the most reliable site online, NPD basically said they are only 10% off. As of their last update, the wii is at 8.38 million. When NPD releases June numbers I'm sure that vgchartz will have the wii at about what I said

That's not going to happen unless some how the PS3 starts actually selling 1 million units a month like the Wii is. The odds of that happening? Not very likely.

they say they are shipping about 1.5 million a month and they are selling nearly all of the units they ship. so 6 months left in the year times 1.5 million per month is 9 million. Lets say the sell 8 million of those and that would put it at 16 million.

That article is clearly referencing Sonys FY 06 Report that listed 5.5 million Units were produced. with less then 3.5 million sold.

sorry to burst bubbles but the PS3 is barely near 4 million if lucky

Well the article stated that 5.5 were SOLD and not shipped. I'm guessing that the editor got the sales figure from a Sony PR? Anyways, the folks over @ Sonyare the only folks that knows how many PS3's have been sold worldwide so you can either take their word for it or not.

I knew this thread was going to balloon. It's always back to the shipped vs. sold argument.Mizuke
this argument isnt even talking about sold to customers vs shipped its talking about shipped vs sold to retailers.

Well the article stated that 5.5 were SOLD and not shipped. Ken K. also admitted that 5.5m PS3's have been sold worldwide. Sony is really the only one that knows how many consoles they've sold worldwide so you can either take their word for it or not.

actually they said they shipped 5.5 million and 3.6 mil were sold to retailers.

[QUOTE="greenleaf2000"]Its probably gonna be wii at 13 mil , 360 at 12 mil and ps3 at 10 mil by the end of the year I think.greenleaf2000

That's not going to happen unless some how the PS3 starts actually selling 1 million units a month like the Wii is. The odds of that happening? Not very likely.

With a pricedrop anything is possible. However everything will be much clearer come E 3.

PS3 is selling that bad that they have 2 have a price drop this early in the game?well...if 360 had a price drop within a year of its birth,im sure what your saying would apply to the 360

You're talking about something that was stated awhile ago. 6 million PS3's have been shipped worldwide so 4-5 million PS3's sold sounds about right. I'm guessing the editor of the article got his sales number from a Sony PR so w/e.
