Not sure what to say about DD sales. If you track one, you have to track the others. As an example - You can't track tge Halo Reach DD sales without tracking the GT5Prologue DD sales.

With the next generation (I assume) having a massive DD focus, I hope VGC can find some way of tracking DD sales.

The Source for American sales is NPD. Im assuming NPD is also used to determine the bundled sales.

I agree totally.  I am merely pointing out that they will have to start tracking them at some point and in some way, otherwise it will become only half the story with the other half all guesswork.

I'm really curious to see how this pans out.  I'm not sure how the site would handle DD sales and if - as is probably already the case for PC games - the percentage of DD to retail slips to far towards digital then SW numbers will start to become somewhat meaningless apart from tracking a single channel only.

I guess HW will mainly sell through retail for ages yet so that should be fine, but I think SW is going to get increasingly hard for the site to track.
