Those are just the raw numbers which don't take into consideration the external factors like population growth and duplicated ownership. None of the growth is coming from increased interest in games or game consoles. If you don't want to watch the video read the little transcript I posted: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=85766
