And remember guys NPD data is a guideline not the law. Meaning don't scream ADJUSTMENTS every 5 secs when the data comes in because trust me... everyone else can see discrepancies and we don't need you to point them out.

I think we should allow VGC a 10% Margin of Error against NPD, after the Canadian/Mexican (8-12%) are factored in.

*if* the X360 beats the PS3 2:1, I think VGC should re-adjust though....At least slightly.

 

Keep in mind that NPD does not adjust their numbers if they realize they undertracked for the previous month.

It is possible that they undertracked the 360 last month, when they had their price cut.  If they realize this, they would just add the number to this month, skewing the sales.  I expected the 360 would have had a larger sales boost last month, so that might be a reason for increased numbers this month.
