so ps4 ist still selling more than 50% of its units in countries, that are not us, uk and japan. that seems reasonable for launch. but for the whole time of the gen? last gen ps3 sold 50% in us+uk and japan but was very weak in the us and uk this gen ps4 sold less than 50% in us+uk+japan, while being the #1 console in that countries thats my point. hard to belive

You may be right, but there is no way to know that for sure. I think it is a valid theory. I would suggest that if it was difficult to tract the sales from May to July, it may become even more difficult as sales pick up. There were two blockbusters this month alone. I read some info on the page that takes about the methodology in certain regions. Did you know that Chartz uses PS3 and PS2 data to extrapolate what PS4 sales are in many regions. I think we will continue to see major deviations in projections vs actual sales until a more proficient survey method is found. I think your point is valid, but I think it is appropiate to doubt. I think complaints of undertracking will disappear as the methodology is improved, but we wont know until Sony's next announcment.
