These are through March 31.

Most of the Wii titles look pretty close. DS titles are probably about 10% high on average.

It's not too bad as I said, but there is still some.

Here is VGC during the same time frame.

SMG - 8.024 million.
Wii Play - 22.8 million.
Brawl - 8.5 million.
Link's Crossbow Training - 3.84 million.
Animal Crossing - 2.9 million. (good job on this one!)
MK Wii - 15.5 million.
Wii Fit - 18 million.
Mario Party 8 - 6.47 million

It's not too bad overtracking but for the top titles I would expect at least 300k+ units to be in the channels seeing the mountain of Mario kart Wii or Wii Fit you can see at some retailers for example.( I know it's anecdotal but last time I went to my local Best Buy they had a pyramid of Wii Fit and like 30 copies of Mario Kart Wii in the Wii software section...). Heck for some of those they have more copies on display than they have for new released high budget HD titles..

When you think about it it's probably more because back at the end of March 300k units of Mk Wii or Wii Fit represented 2 weeks of sales and I would expect more than that to be in those channels...
