Thanks, why does your chart say there is around 1m in shelves in March but Ethomaz is always listing these 1.4/1.5m ect figures?

1m makes a lot more sense, especially given the rate it's selling. I'd say a good 900k undertracked.

because he's wrong.

Am I wrong? Give me a break... simple math here... just get the shipped number for the 31th March and compare with the VGC sales for the same period.

2011: 53.6m shipped / 52.8m sold = 800k on shelves (supply constrained confirmed by MS)
2010: 40.2m shipped / 39.1m sold = 1.1m on shelves
2009: 30.2m shipped / 28.9m sold = 1.3m on shelves
2008: 19.0m shipped / 17.6m sold = 1.4m on shelves
2007: 10.9m shipped / 9.4m sold = 1.5m on shelves

Face it!

1.1 and 800k being the recent years, 1.4 and 1.5 being the peak of the gen. Ever since 07 it's gone down, you still persist these days 1.5m on shelves is normal though.
