With there way of getting there data... I always take this with a huge grain of salt.... Really hard to get a feeling of the market by looking at receipts from only a select few willing to send them in. But 250K is an very impressive number.... but how many bought a console is not so much is my bet.

Do bear in mind that 250k is the total number of receipts they have. The number of receipts with gaming related purchases are much lower. For example, last year only 1.1% of their total sample made a gaming related purchase.

 

We dont know the number this year but if we apply that same percentage then it would mean that less than 3,000 of the 250,000 made a gaming purchase and were counted above. 

People already posted the fine print that only 2000 receipts were game related... no info on how many HW receipts, maybe even less than 500. So I have quite the hard time believing on their precision.
