Fixed to the more likely totals.

Yeah, I know. I thought I'd pull a page out of the Samus Mold troll's
book...

I think the Wii numbers will be way lower than that. Maybe as much as
1/2.

Probably not, Nintendo is still selling through everything they can
ship.

That's the thing, I don't think they're shipping as many as people
think.

Continuing evidence that bilgemerk and its apes don't know what they're
talking about.

Are you sure? I looked at the thread, and it looked like some guy
just pulled them out of the air. The REAL numbers will be out later
in the week. Don't get me wrong, I think the PS3 will be trailing,
but not quite THAT bad.

They were. No way the X360 sold that much in April with no huge
releases. I seriously doubt the Wii moved that many system for an
April as well.

I assume you mean March. Obviously Wii sold as many as they could ship, so
this will be an insight into how many they are managing to manufacture each
month for allocation to NA. I have no idea about PS3 sales. I've noticed
that there are lot of PS3 sitting around at retailers right now, but Sony
might also have bumped up supply, so who knows?

MS probably nabbed up a few tax returns for the Xbox 360. I bet those
numbers are close, and the two shit hot systems right now are the Wii
and Xbox 360. Not too many people seem to care about the PS3. Wonder
why?

Probably the same reason people keep voting for Sanjaya. People are
moron lemmings who do whatever they're told to do by their friends so
they can feel cool. ;-)
