So is the Wii and PS3 and ODST getting adjustments or they just going to ignore it.

You have been around long enough to know that NPD is a sampling, just like VGC, so WHY would they change there numbers...for another estimate?  If you think VGC is so off base...why not just leave the site?  Also, what's wrong with the ODST estimates...it looks to be pretty spot on, if not a tad bit under, but nothing worthy of changes.

because they always do

Errr....for NPD?  I always thought they changed for financial statement reports, not for other sampling source, but I could be wrong.

nope they always adjust things when more reliable figures come out, VGC is as close as you can get to reliable when it comes to free data.

Exactly, They dont change them to match NPD, i think if theres something glaring it will be adjusted accordingly, like Wii Rockband and probably Wii and PS3 since both would be hard for VGC to track d/t the price cuts and the remodel.
