nobody is ignoring it, it's just wrong.  NPD has Wii U past dreamcast.  Are you comparing this NPD to vgchartz numbers that include all of the americas or using shipment data instead of sell through?  That's probably what you did.

I didn't do anything. And here's ZhugeEX's explaination.

People really need to do their research first.

Well it has much less info than the OP but calls it wrong without making any corrections.

ok so someone in here is nitpicking about a 30k difference in sales that have probably already happened for Wii U at the time we're writing about this?

what i was looking at is this

but it really makes little difference.

False info is false info. Just wait until we have July NPD numbers to make it official. If it was the Wii U being under-cut this thread would have fallen into complete chaos and the OP would have been nailed to a cross.

well i added up all the numbers myself and i got 4,096,544. Don't know where the OP got the numbers from but he's not the only one reporting it.

i guess someone mistook 4.01 million for 4.1 million.

Nice. The next achievement for the Wii U will be overtaking the Game Gear and the Vita.

That number is 4.1m? Not 4.01m

Besides, there are other things incorrect about the OP that I mentioned above. For example the Dreamcast only shipped 9.13m worldwide. Not 9.16m or 9.20m as mentioned by the OP in the posts above. 



I thought Dreamcast sold 10.6 mil worldwide?

Wikipedia is wrong. 

The correct figure is 9.13m as per Sega's financial reports and backed up by CESA.
