Nice to see i was right that the PS3 was being overtracked by about 25% in the past 5 weeks :)

So numbers compared to last year

Wii = 679k this year - 274k last year = 405k INCREASE = 147% UP

DS = 510k this year - 251k last year = 259k INCREASE = 103% UP

360 = 309k this year - 230k last year = 79k INCREASE = 34% UP

PS2 = 101k this year - 264k last year = 163k DECREASE = 61% DOWN

PSP = 172k this year - 230k last year = 58k DECREASE = 25% DOWN

PS3 = 203k this year - 269k last year = 66k DECREASE = 24% DOWN

Not a good day for the Sony fanboys then

Vgchartz data: (*0.9)

Wii = 746,234 (+67) +9.8%

DS = 562,021 (+52) +10.2%

360 = 340,986 (+32) +10.3%

PS3 = 219,355 (+16) +7.8%

PSP = 242,228 (+70) +40.7%

PS2 = 108,335 (+7) +6.9%

So we can see that aside from the PSP outlier Vgchartz was systematically higher by between 6.9-10.3%. This indicates that the methods are pretty sound overall with the exception of the PSP sales.
