Sell in - the number of units sold by a company to retail = what companies report.

Sell through - the number of units sold by retail to consumers = what VGChartz reports.

It really isn't that difficult.

Ok. But some games had no EMEAA sales reported here and others the gap between Sell in and through is so big or Sell through > Sell in (that's impossible).

Maybe some adjustments are necessary.


The OP is talking about hardware sales (I presume). Yes, there are plenty of games in the database with regional sales missing for a particular region.

a few things

1) I seriously love this page. I love sales, i love the info, i love the effort youre making

2) I can't understand how you were tracking PS3 sales in EMEAA half of real sales in past weeks

3) I can't understand how 360 soft sales are spot on with shipped games and PS3, wii and ds dozens millions below. If there have to be a big gap between shipped and sold (those numbers you told us about 30k stores) why the problem with 360 software then?

4) surely ps2 sales in some countries are hard to track but why you are not making adjustments like with the ps3? Its really more difficult or less of a matter because ps2 is older?. And what about psp? I can't understad a gap of this kind between shipped and sold

5) thank you about not closing this thread. It tells about your constructive point of view

6) i'd like to see old graphs like thar about aligned sales from launch? Are you working in take all of this back to the new web?
