Those saying that VGChartz' numbers include Canada and Mexico, while it may be true, it doesn't sound like it.

VGChartz said in their BF article:


 
Nintendo sold nearly 800,000 Wii units and 850,000 DS units in the Americas during the week ending 28th November - pretty much exactly the same as last year.

 

The Wii sold about 800.000 units is the US alone in 2008, so if these numbers are for NA, they're not pretty much exactly the same. If they are for the US alone, something isn't right.

Vgchartz=estimates

Nintendo=estimates using a larger sample size

 

See the difference?
