Yes, but aren't the US, Japan, UK sales etc. all extrapolations too?


No they aren't..

Or estimations or whatever? Basically the same thing but more accurate

No no they're not the same. VGC estimates hardware for UK, France, Italy, Germany etc... this estimations are directly from their data

Extrapolation is different. They estimate the rest of the PAL countries using numbers from UK, France, Germany, Italy etc... So it's not direct but rather they kind of make a good guess probably realtive to the size and economy of each country. Not a bad estimation imo since these numbers are very small compared to the main EU countries, so the margin of error won't matter that much overall.

Was my explanation good?
