Well in fairness we have the likes of Madworld, Conduit, Valkria (and probably Bayonetta if that pattern is anything to go by) higher than NPD by reasonable amounts so I'm not entirely in disagreement with NPD seeming to undertrack core Sega stuff by 10-30%.

Fair enough, and I don't take NPD as gospel myself.  I think we've already talked their troubling Wal-mart multiplier method actually.

I just find the source of this figure (who also threw out multiple fallacies in the same podcast) to be rather questionable.  And then this invented Siras vs NPD false dichotomy... it's like wtf?  Who even said that? :/

 Hmm which fallacies again? I just rmember the Yakuza voice thing being brought up, which was quickly dispelled. Care to take the time to bulletpoint the actual fallacies?

Quickly dispelled?  Maybe we listened to different podcasts?

The other big point of contention was sales of Sega's mature games.  Honestly, Hantzopolous seemed to not know much of what he was talking about when the subject went beyond Condemned, Secret Level or his band.
