Someone please answer this question I have...Why does the PS3 have to be undertracked every single week? People post this nearly every single week and I was just curious as to why?

Also as for this thread...why is GT5 undertracked? Its a games 1st week sales like any other game so what makes this one different? Don't even say its because its a big game because so were many Wii and 360 games.

Ok.

First the PS3 have to be undertacked in EMEAA because there are a lot of contries VGC doesn't cover... and the last years prove that PS3 receive massive adjusments from time to time.

But like the lastadjusment is recent I believe PS3 was well tracked here.

Now GT5... official numbers.

UK: 265-275k
Spain: 92k
Italy: over 100k
Finland: over 20k (day one)
India: over 20k

TOTAL:  ~500k

So  670k to VGC numbers... now guesses.

France and Germany are the main land for GT sales and both bigger than Italy and UK... but I'm conservative so...

France: ~200k
Germany: ~200k

270k to VGC numbers for all the others countries.

Australia, Portugual, others EU, Asia, Mid-East... all the rest of the world except America and Japan.

Edit - There are the 1 million for 2 days said by VGC before... so just 150k in the others 2 days???

1. VGC already said that the #'s reported early were wrong and off a bit.

2. 150K is easily possible in my opinion.(Could have had stock issues or the people who planned on buying it 1st week got it during release day and day after. Games released during the Holiday's tend to sell throughout and not just week 1.)
