any legit reason why knack digital downloads are counted here when no digital downloads previously ever have been counted or ARE currently being counted?

Stupid.

Because the digital downloads are sold at retail.


bundled digital downloads.

like... halo reach for instance and countless other games with digital bundles that werent counted.

If they were bundled with EVERY XB sold in a given region, they should have been counted, as they were trackable with the same tools and sources VGC uses for HW. OTOH, if they weren't bundled with every console in a region, neither for a well defined period, tracking them weekly would be very difficult, although if the available stock was revealed, after a while a cumulative adjustment should be possible. You could ask ioi about this, but intuitively, if a game's digital version is bundled with every console in a given region, forever or for a given period, tracking it should be a lot easier, in the other cases there are many factors that can make it more or less difficult.
