3DS once again over tracked.

Wii U seems to better tracked compared to last quarter.


We already knew that(from the LTD sales leaks of NPD..:P

It's only overtracked in one place!In the usa,by 200k or 300k...

The 3DS is a lot more than 200-300k overtracked.  VGC shows 50.39m as of Jan 3rd, Nintendo shows 50.41m shipped as of Dec 31st.  VGC shows 18.06m sold in Japan versus 18.70m shipped.  So that is 640k on shelves in Japan (more actually since that includes 4 days of 2015 sell through), yet only 110k (also slightly more due to the date) on shelves worldwide which would mean there is negative supply outside Japan.

The 3DS is probably at least a million overtracked.

The Wii U is also probably overtracked, but much less severely than the 3DS.  130k on shelves in Japan, but only 120k on shelves in the rest of the world.  Again, the dates don't line up great, but it gives us a pretty good idea.
