I still think Vgchartz did the wrong thing by actually bothering to reply to Greenberg's one sentence about Vgchartz on Twitter. His job is to be a PR troll and the general rule of thumb is "dont feed the trolls".

Also, I don't think anyone should be surprised to see big X360 numbers. There were plenty of bundles, Kinect came out, and MS had big releases with Halo, Fable, and most recently Black Ops to ride off.

It's not wise for the admin here to treat Greenberg ect like trolls, actually thanks to VGCharts mature response, he apologised and requested they chat about sales.

He did?!

Yeah he said "id love to chat about your tracking offline sometime"

Ahh cool. Thanks for that, I was completely oblivious.



Tease.

^ So was I.



In its 5th year the Xbox 360 will see its biggest holiday sales period yet. While some may attribute this to games that were released, I wholeheartedly believe Kinect is the prime reason. New Xbox 360 owners are coming on board because of it.

When will the npd numbers be "released"?

I know there won't be an actual release but companies will put out numbers. ;-p

Tomorrow around 6pm EST.  

It's not near the same as it used to be, though, as we now have to wait for Pachter or sometimes Greenburg or Major Nelson to say something.  Since the new NPD, Sony and Nintendo haven't said much.  Based on this tweet, I expect Greenburg to have something to celebrate so I expect a tweet from him sometime tomorrow evening.

Actually I think it's coming out early this month. I think it's around 4pm EST.

No clue. I just remember someone on Gaf posting an NPD release schedule for the next few months. I'll see if I can dig the post up.

:edit: Gaf has it at 4pm in their November NPD prediction thread.
