Sony's in first? Who's in Second?

So EGM was off by about FOUR MILLION...?

I agree with Bond here. Wait until this gen. is over, and then we can look back and try to determine who got second. But honestly, it doesn't matter. If MS is second, then Nintendo will want to pump up the bar next gen. and try to reclaim a better spot. If Nintendo is second, then MS will have to rethink on how to become better.

Pfff, they'll BOTH need to rethink their strategies, 2nd place or not!

I am assuming that Nintendo wanted to "pump up the bar" this generation due to coming second last generation... But that didn't do much, lol.

First. When the GCN came out, Yamauchi (spelling?) was Prez. of Nintendo. He didn't care about getting back where they were years before because he thought Nintendo was already good enough. Well, he retired about 1/4 to 1/2 the way into the GCN's life. Then someone came in that wants to attempt to get back where they were. Thats why i said next gen. MS and Nintendo will try to get better next gen. because they will see what htey did wrong this gen. So sorry to say Joeiss, but trying to get me to flame you wasn't going to work

What the hell are you talking about flaming for? I was asking stating a point that i did not think they did much to do better this gen.. so why wouldn't people expect the same next gen?

Don't talk about flaming, dickless, unless you want me to start it up again.

but the sony section of the pie ate the MS and Nintendo sections.

Are you making fun of me? I am really drunk as of now, so i cant relly tell!

I am just sick and tired of jonbo bringing up past stuff between me and him. If he wants to argue, he can email me or PM... or if he wants to do it on the boards, i shall continue with my semi-funny remarks towards him.

Gamecube is second. No, im not using my blind gamecube instinct. Nintendo had actually sold about 9.5 million by the end of their fiscal year in march. Now MS's ends June 31st and posting similar numbers. Though, the lead may not be much more than a million, so things can change in a holiday season. Though sony is way, way ahead, so neither have much to brag about.
