That's true, but many of us use the current figures to work out how the holiday will progress... so any large change screws up the first 3-4 weeks of predictions at least (for example based on the average weekly sales in August/September, and the rate of increase in October compared with previous years. The Wii would not have gone from the old last week figure of 135k up to what will probably be almost 225k when Japan gets in for Week 1) Perhaps next year it will turn out that they get adjusted back towards where they were, but that's an unknown.
