360 Numbers don't add up!

[Monty]

You guys are right... I did mix up the first set of numbers in the 3.2 million. I used older NPD stats, the newer ones that I posted were recently readjusted by NPD. Anyhow, I have no problem admitting when I was wrong, but apparently nobody here can do the same. You all were dead wrong about NPD being all of NA - or a combination of US and Canada. They are US only, as I proved. Anyhow, revisiting my initial numbers, with the correction to 2.9 million... - NPD number of 2.9million from Nov 05-Oct 06 (US only) - The NPD number of 2 million from Nov 1st to Dec 25th (assuming it is NA) - My estimate of 1.5 million for the rest of NA from Nov 05 to Oct 06 - vgcharts estimate of the rest of the world from Nov 05 to Dec 06 of 2.76 million We've narrowed down the only number in contention is the rest of NA... Canada and Mexico for 12 months (Nov 05-Oct 06). A lot of you are trying to say that 12 months of Canada and Mexico would only be 300k... that's simply crap. We know for certain that they sold nearly 300k to both territories in 2005. MS released data showing they sold 900k in NA, and we can use the NPD data to filter out what was from the US on Nov 05 and Dec 05, to find that nearly 300k sold in Canada and Mexico those two months. I'd say it's pretty conservative to say that Canada and Mexico sold another 1 million on top of that for the entire year of 2006. Again, all my numbers are extremely lowballing everything, and giving you guys every benefit of the doubt. I've proven you wrong on the NA, yet you now want to pretend Canada and Mexico sales are meaningless to the point of being ridiculous. Still, giving every benefit to you people, the numbers still add up to over 9 million!
