Just a random thought here.
Is is possible that NPD may understate the sales of some systems and software (and consequently overestimate the sales of others) because it does not track Wal-Mart?
It seems almost everytime I am in one of those stores, someone is getting something out of the Nintendo case (or at least looking at it). Meanwhile, I never see anyone showing interest in the Xbox 360 or PS3 cases.
Maybe it is just happenstance. Or maybe certain shoppers go to different stores (and not game stores). Certainly if you go into a Gamestop (or read GameInformer) you get the impression that the PS3 has a lot to offer and the Wii is just kind of there.
