Yeah. I was trying to convince people on Joystiq/Kotaku about the numbers, but was dismissed. I actually had some people converting (usually when Japanese numbers are out, people as why there aren't NA numbers weekly. I point them to this site.)
However, after Sony's incredible revelation-shipped vs sold- it is very hard to make people believe. I even referred them to NPD, MC, and GFK numbers for the first half of the year that match up with VGC's numbers.
It has become a lot more difficult in the past week, but I am still fighting the good fight. At least, at other blogs.
