The funny thing is, many swore Vgchartz was undetracking Kinect's numbers while questioning the numbers. Now, it seems vgchartz was a little bit overtracking it espacially if those are shipped copies.

Yeah, many said the numbers were to be adjusted up soon.. that won't happen.
|
why not?
wayyyyy too early to tell.
This isnt a company reporting shipped numbers that they can do very accurately almost immediately, it is MS reporting what they believe is sold through to peoples homes.
both VGC and MS could revise these numbers at any moment... and likely will, either up OR down.
PS. trying to constantly play down Kinect numbers, as many are here, is plain silly. It is a success so far... deal with it.

Either way the result will be around 1.3 million, not far off.
I am not down playing it, I am still shocked they sold over one million in a matter of few days! but I read SOME comments suggesting adjusments ,you were one of them, and I brought that up, deal with it. How is that exactly down playing anyway?

I would still say there will be adjustments... there nearly always is? why would this be a surprise? This is how VGC works. It collects data in a real time way, its organic, it will vary as time passes and re-modelling will occur.
We are talking very very early sales data here and it simply cannot be 100% accurate. I would say an adjustment is 100% certain. Up or Down? Who knows?
True. I am just not expecting huge ajusments :)
What is painful is when its constantly one side saying their figures are always undertracked and the others are always over.. its boring and child like.
It is boring and people here are impatient when it comes to adjusments.

anyway over one million is really a big number, it doesn't need to be suger coated and 5 million target sounds very possible now.
