| Demotruk said: Isn't using NPD + Enterbrain + Charttrack/GFK giving Nintendo an unfair advantage? One of Sony's big advantage in this industry is distribution, they've managed to sell much better in markets Nintendo has difficulty with, many of those wouldn't be tracked at all, they only turn up in shipment figures and are estimated by others. |
It's a like vs like comparison at least, it's literally the same markets being covered. Nintendo now has official distribution in most of the same expanded markets not covered anyway (Korea, Russia, India, Brazil, Mexico, Southeast Asia, Middle East, etc).
Again, due to Sony's historical accounting methods you can't even get an accurate PS2 shipment total, much less do a comparison with DS.
