That is probably a more accurate number, given NPD forms the bulk of the raw data. I've never kept track of NPD LTDs so I am never able to reference them for situations like this.
Which makes the software sales margin of 1.26:1 (with big margin for error) look even better for PS4, because against most people's natural inclination it would mean the attach rate on PS4 is higher than Xb one. Because anyone with knowledge of FPS sales history in the USA knows that FPS sells best on Xbox, a higher attach rate for Destiny on PS4 is absolute proof that the exclusive deal between Sony and Acti worked out very well for Sony. This completely counters the post I initially responded to which feigned surprised at how little effect the exclusive arrangement seemed to have made. The numbers, with the inaccuracy caveat, actually prove exactly the opposite.

Well, using VGC numbers that gives you 1.26:1 on HW and curiously gives SW rate 1.26:1 is just a signal that VGC used their numbers for total HW for both platforms to estimate total SW not that they have close sales... |
Yep, but we'll never have any conparative SW information that's more accurate to talk about. So either we don't talk at all about software sales or we take the numbers at face value and base our discussions on that objective, albeit inaccurate, information.
We have $325M sellthrough from somewhere divide by 60 = 5.4 million. But that's a terribly inaccurate figure because in lots of countries games cost a lot more than $60US equivalent. So VGC's 4.4 million estimate does not seem unreasonable. But we have no idea of the breakdown. Has anyone actually announced sales ratios globally?
