Thats another whole level of denial.A number cant be more precise and final than official numbers, which is what they are when they come from Nintendo.NPD and Media Create numbers are, in the end, estimations, which not always include digital(Media Create never includes digital). |
NPD and Media Create use sell-through numbers, not sell-in. While I agree that as a general rule of thumb, shipped numbers are used, in this case, we know the sold through numbers and it is way lower than the shipped numbers. And fairly sure media create counts download carts. Even being optimistic about digital would not get you close to 1.2M.
