Given the number of people I saw at Toys R Us this morning, it is a big deal.
NPD without Wal-Mart and Toys R Us, two of the top if not the top two toy sellers in the USA, is virtually meaningless. (Both have their own line of special products ... do even TRU still has quite a powerful pull).
I always thought NPD undertracked Wii because of not including Wal-Mart. Without Toys R Us, that only gets worse. And now some others are beginning to question that data as well.
Maybe that is why NPD wanted to just go quarterly -- to disguise how bad its data is becomming.
