Not really. Nintendo says it sold 650k in the US in the last 2 weeks. VGChartz estimates Nintendo sold around 730k in NA in the last 2 weeks. Take 650k * 1.12 (to account for the rest of NA) and you get approximately 730k. So in this regard VGChartz is spot on. As for the weekly differences it could be Nintendo counting a week differently, or Nintendo counting when it shipped the soon to sold Wii to the retailer, or just the sort of statistical variance that makes smaller and smaller samples much less acurrate than larger ones. |
good point, Canada is usually 10% of the USA, but Wii is comparitively more popular in Canada (or it was from what i remember) so 12% seems fair.
