They're updated April 30. I even indicated that in my post. It's in bold, it's underlined and it's hyperlinked. "Through April 2003". Would you like me to put it in font 72 so you can see it?

Compairing the units Microsoft sold through January to the units Nintendo shipped through March is hardly basis to say that Microsoft is 3rd.

Being in a lower place will make them work harder to get on top. And as long as you enjoy there games does it really matter which place there in? Its not like there gonna go banckrupt or somthing. So you will be able to enjoy there games for a long time.

[Virtual]

Yeah, I think Microsoft is in 3rd...but I don't care, I'm probably still gonna get an xbox.

[SoulPlayer]

Yea, I also belive that Xbox is in third. But who cares only the games matter.

[Serene Samus]

Nintendo lives!

[Suzuki_Fanboy]

Someone post the latest charts for console sales. Phantagram I'm sure you have them. I'm tired of people saying "I thing Xbox is in third to, that sucks for Xbox, blah blah blah." I want to see the real charts...

Nintendo beat Microsoft in January. Gamecube did not, but Nintendo as whole did. Nintendo is second. Live with it.

[HolyPaladin]

Didn't Sony even declare Nintendo to be in second just here recently? I thought I read it somewhere the other day. Like Nintendo and Sony both say Nintendo is second and Microsoft is third, with only Microsoft disagreeing.

OK first of all, Princess? That's gotta be the saddest diss I've heard all my life.

And second of all, your sig looks like something out of a nightmare of MS Paint I once had.

[jpmansfield]

Nintendo - in this case defined as the combination of Gamecube and Gameboy Advance.

In that case, Microsoft (Xbox, Windows 3.1, Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows 98 SE, Windows ME, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows XP Pro, Microsoft Office, MSN, WebTV, their Pocket PC OS, optical mice, joysticks) is 1st. Out of everything.

Holy shit, I think that was the coolest thing I've seen all day. Seriously. I never even thought of that...and you just totally thrashed everybody, as usual. Excellent.

Wait I messed up, it says gamecube is in second. Sorry:o

[smellslikenintendospirit]

Microsoft is in third for xbox console units sold. Third for profits off of their xbox console business too. Sony thinks so too. Eat it.

Now get back on topic and let's talk about how Mario Party 4 and Smash Bros. outsold and entire xbox library, and how Wind Waker outsold both the entire PS2 and Xbox library.

[Michael Bluth]

Sony thinks so too.


Thank you for being ignorant. Have a nice day. :)

[Viper]

Phanty, those weren't video game console s or handhelds. You should be ashamed of yourself for posted that proof of ignorance.

Topic at hand. I'm actually surprised there is no xbox game in the top 30 and that SSBM is still in it.

Yeah seriously. Phanty's just being an asshole because he's upset at xbox's poor performance.

LIVE WITH IT.

could you do better? you draw your own sig and show me how it comes out then i'll shut up.

[advancemonkey]

................................... This is getting stupid we all will have diffrent facts because we all have gotten it from diffrent sources. Nintendo is going to say they are in second and micrsoft will say they are.[Sony seems to respect Nintendo more than microsoft). Suzaki when did you become Phantagrams cheerleader?

And which of those have anything to do with the video games market? Somewhere around zero I believe, with a one either way for margin of error.

Windows 3.1/95/98/98 SE....none of those even sell anymore.

If you want to compare electronics in general, yes, it is beating out Nintendo. But these are video games we speak of at this video games forum.

This area of discussion is general consoles, and none of the above mentioned items are consoles.

[Prince]

you need the OS to play PC games and Microsoft Game Studios makes some of the top selling PC games :p

If your going to compare Nintendo as a whole to a portion of Microsoft then go ahead. He was just returning the favor.

So what is Microsoft? First or second?

I can't take him seriously.

Nintendo also makes suckers, towels, soap, tape, etc and nobody counts how much money those make. Do you really count all of microsoft as a game counsoul producer.........

[Prince]

You can play games with towels, soap, and tape? Oh...NOW i know what you do in the shower ;)

[advancemonkey]

you are getting rid of the aspect that a computer is not a gaming counsoul. Microsoft would not need a xbx if a computer was a gaming counsoul.

[Prince]

sure it is. I play computer games all the time.

[advancemonkey]

so why does microsoft make xbx............ and i can play games on a telephone does not make it a gaming counsoul.

[cheetahmanhood]

Those are March video game sales, which we saw a long time ago, and I want to see the real April sales!

[smellslikenintendospirit]

^They should be out soon, usually they update every month or so.
