You don't use the VGC number to divide by to work out %age differences.

if the dirrerence between VGC and NPD (for PS3) is ~45k... then it's 45/225 = 0.2

20% difference.

180k was already scaled to US, so it is around 25%.

 

I think he meant that I should have  divided 45 by NPD number, not VGC. And  he is right.

 

VGC is 20% lower than NPD number. BUT, NPD number is 25% higher than VGC´s, which is what I was going for, so I am right as well.

 

The wonders of Mathematics :D
