Sony consoles get most of their sales from Walmart, which the NPD certainly has to estimate. The same is true for VGC, I think, so based on how they each estimate walmart sales, it could account for a significant difference in that one retailer alone. |
Why would Wal-Mart skew things in favor of one console maker over another?
I could argue that Wal-Mart is skewing numbers in favor of Sony, not against it. Without proof, it's just wild speculation and there is no reason to think Wal-Mart any different than Target, Best Buy, or any other big box retailer.
