| TWRoO said: Actually I am not certain, but the NPD data I assume you are using (Jan+Feb+Mar) should in fact coincide with different VGC numbers than what you have. I think December NPD ran into January (week ending 5th Jan was in December NPD) so that the VGC weeks you should use are these: (both dates are for the week ending on that date) VGChartz Hardware data for the period 12th Jan 2008 to 05th Apr 2008:
Wii - 1426 (multiplying by 1.1 because I don't know the Canada numbers)
This may not be totally accurate because I do not know the preferences of the Canadians (they may buy more than 10% of American 360s, which would put the numbers closer) However it does show that VGC is incredibly close for both PS3 and Wii, and ioi has maintained for a while that NPD undertracks 360 so the increase there makes sense.

Hmm... need to check those NPD dates again. Stil, my original post was just to show how close NPD and VGC are. If you are correct it's even closer. Except 360... not sure why 360 is the only one with over 10% difference, seems to much compared to the others :(
EDIT: Just checked, you're right NPD started in Jan 6th. Need to fix my spreadsheet when I get back home... ty
