I put a lot of faith in VGC # to estimate NPD numbers. According to this site, the Wii only sold 433k in August, while theSimExchange has it at 560k for the USA only, so I invested heavily on the fact that its going to be lower.

We can argue over which numbers are better, but VGC and NPD have had some significant differences lately.  The 360 sales for last month being the largest.

 

 

I never said which was better, but the last few months I've used this sites numbers as a estimation to get a range that the NPD released numbers might be. So far I haven't been disappointed. If the numbers are too close to say wether I should short or long, then I go with my gut but I don't heavily invest. I have a feelnig that since VGC states really low Wii sales, that NPD might report higher, but I feel there's little chance it'll be THAT much higher.

@Gilgamesh, it's hit or miss.
