That depends on how you look at it. Problem is, this time the errors concentrated on the best selling consoles, which should be "easier" to track. In that sense the ratio of "units in error" went up from 12% to 16%.

Don't get me wrong. As long as it keeps hovering around 15% it's fine by me for what this is. And hopefully it will drop with time to around 10%, before diminishing returns kicks in. But I wouldn't average those ratios like you did.

Don't agree.

Especially when consoles are selling out, they are much harder to track.

Say ioi gets data from a very large store. Say they got 1000 Wiis in, and sold 800 of them. 80% sell-through, once extrapolated?

100 other smaller stores are not tracked. They got 50 Wiis each - and sold out on each shipment.

...

The DS is the only one I don't understand. Is it shipment related, or are sales all over the place?

Either way, its another fantastic month for Ninty. 900k hardware sold, Sony has around 600k - and MS around 150k. You can still see who the small player is.
