I'm personally of the mind that this isn't a really fair comparison, since handhelds tend to have better digital sales. I made this comment on the Fire Emblem vs. Ni no Kuni thread, so it only makes sense I make it here too.

Though really, people shouldn't latch on to that 60% number so closely. It almost certainly includes classic games and digital-only games, which isn't being taken into account on the Wii U side either.

VGChartz logic:

1. If it's your favorite console, never let people forget to take digital sales into account. If you hate the opposition, conveniently forget they have viable digital stores too.

2. For some reason, bundled games don't count toward sales. Because even though countless people say they're waiting to buy a console when a specific game comes out, people never buy consoles for a specific game. It just happens to fall out of the packaging when they unbox it.

3. All data on VGChartz is bogus except when you need it to make your point.

4. Anonymous sources are more reliable and trustworthy than industry insiders willing to reveal themselves when leaving a comment.

I think I'll make a thread of this.

This pretty sums it up. XD Especially number 2. It's like people forget the reason for bundles in the first place.
