Including canada numbers playstation was the brand most undertracked.

Not saying notin bad, just sayin vgchartz has tremendous accuracy for the rest of the systems.

@Avinash

what canada

Ps3 was undertracked by 90K anyway

so including Canada it's probably far more...

Yes but Wii and Ds were not overtracked, just PS3 and such were undertracked

Predictions:Sales of Wii Fit will surpass the combined sales of the Grand Theft Auto franchiseLifetime sales of Wii will surpass the combined sales of the entire Playstation family of consoles by 12/31/2015 Wii hardware sales will surpass the total hardware sales of the PS2 by 12/31/2010 Wii will have 50% marketshare or more by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!! It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!! Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)

Even if Wii was overtracked / ps3 undertracked, it would be by less than 10%.... i doubt ioi makes any correction in terms of hardware.

However seems like there was a massive undertracking of software for Wii/360

I think I'll wait for The Source to do his news item because you guys keep throwing different numbers around as to how much VG Chart was in or out for each system :/
