I wonder where they get these supposed numbers from?

And does it only include US sales for the big three or JPN/EU/AU as well?

[WuTangTurtle]

they say estimate.  You can take that as they take a complete bs guess, or they simply round out numbers.

I say bs, for now.

[KnowsNothing]

BS.  They don't know.

They have 7 million 360s so they're counting worldwide numbers, don't know how though. The Wii's primary color is white and PS3 is black, they should update those colors.

Those numbers seemed to be correct to me, but i can't say how they got those numbers esp so fast.  Has the wii/ps3 even been launched internationaly yet?  I have a feeling ps3 won't bee #1 this time around think they shot themselves in the foot with high price tag.  It will be interesting in about six months to see those numbers.

I'm gonna hazard a guess: all of them.

[WalkingTheCow]

Those are probobly well educated guesses. . . That said, it sounds about right. Now, just watch Wii pull further ahead.

According those #'s Sony only launched with about 170,000 Ps3's in the US since we kow they only had about 83,000 in JPN.

If thats true and Sony can only supply 1/4 of the launch total for a weekly restock, then Sony will onlu have another 240,000 or so PS3's b4 the end of the year. Thats barely more than what the supposed launch total was supposed to be.

What will be interesting to watch is how well all those ps3's are selling on ebay, now that is a stat i would love to see.  Those systmems are going for upwards of $5,000 a pop, wonder how long that is going to last?

[WuTangTurtle]

apparently not long, the average sell price now for a ps3 is about $1,900.

[BlackNMild2k1]

I'm not sure where this site is getting its #'s but the Wii #'s keep climbing and climbing





the Wii #'s were @ 514k+ when I saw tham earlier, now they are above 530k and still climbing.
How many Wii's did Nintendo release @ launch?

[KnowsNothing]

I'm guessing around 700-800,000.  They SAID 1 million but eh.

[LuWoo75]

If it is 1 million then someone is sittin on 1/2 million copies and i'd like to know who it is.

[NWR_pap64]

I just hope Nintendo restocks for the Holiday rush...My Wii and my nephew's Wii depend on it .

I don't see any problem with believing the 1 million shipment number, in which case Nintendo is currently at 1 million sold, so far as I'm concerned.
