Not a resounding statement that he is confident the PS3 is ahead, he gives
no business indicators to show such a statistic. Having said that, if you
think the PS3 was undertracked, then you would have to hold the site to the
same degree as the other consoles sales. Remember, they all used shipped,
and not sold as the stat.. Having said that, I don't think that those
numbers since the middle of October are going to be off so much to favor the
360 or the Wii at this point. Here in the US, the PS3 is really taking a
nose dive as I see many consumers buying the cheaper BR players than the
PS3.
When I bought Fable II in October, I still saw Folklore selling for the same
release price and it was released a year before that.

I'm going to call Pachter an idiot again and say all of these numbers
are low.
From what I'm hearing the Wii sold 800,000 in the week of Thanksgiving
ALONE.
