The only numbers I really trust are North America, United Kingdom, Australia, and Japan. Basically when you total everything else it can be off by hundreds of thousands if not millions in the case of a very large releases so it's going to be hard to compare the numbers with anything but a huge grain of salt.

For example I'm starting to get skeptical of the PS3 making up huge numbers of sales in mainland Europe when many of those markets don't really move a whole lot of games, certainly nothing comparable to the United States.

I hate to break it to you but financially right now Europe ( Mainland + UK) is a much better market for console makers than NA. The reason being the falling dollar with eats console makers profits like mad....( sometime I feel like I'm getting paid in monopoly money these days...)

Mainland europe moves software close to the same rythm as US, the issue is there are 26 Millions of console out in NA compared to little over 18 Millions in Others.

This past week you have 3.84 Millions units of software sold in NA, compared to 2.5 Millions in Others.

So basically  1.5 more software sold in NA where there are 1.4 times more consoles.

Seems sales are pretty similar to me....
