Bu there are not three weeks of data.....
It came out in europe (which we orgionally were talking about) on 29th of jan. From 29th to 5th = week 1, which numbers were 100k in europe which we are disputing. From 5th to 12th (tommorow) is week 2 for europe. So 1 more week of data is needed to be uptodate.
In US it was released on 26th of January. 26th to 2nd = 1st week. However the 1st numbers were reported on 30th jan, so the sales were 4 days on sale. Meaning the next set of data should go from 31st to 6th feb, which is 1 weeks data, and then from 6th to 13th, that is the 2nd load of data.
So we are only 1 week of data behind and in 2 days will be 2 behind.
So yes it is possible in those 12 days since the first numbers came out that MAG worldwide has reached 500k. But as i tried to imply for that to happen means MAG would of had to sell at least 150k for its 2nd week. Seeing as NPD have it down at under 170k for its 1st week then you have to say that it is unlikely. Not impossible, just not very likely.
