VGC and NPD are both using retail sample data. Calling one less accurate than the other doesn't make any sense when both are highly calculated estimations.
Say VGC says 700 and NPD says 900. But the real value is 800. Can you look at the NPD number anc alim VGC to be any less accurate?
The rEVOLution is not being televised
VGC's USA numbers are Americas X 0.87. Source has said so a few times.
:edit: But as you can see here our Non-USA ratio seems to fluctuate a bit from 0.13.

But going by Price is Right rules, in this case VGC would be the winner.

As much as I love VGC and the work the team does, NPD are the professionals. They are the biggest market research firm in the world. Lots of different companies ask them to track sales and pay big time for this. Not just videogames of course. They track pretty much everything.
