This thread is dead without numbers. Hopefully someone comes to the rescue soon, because if we don't get any more U.S. hardware numbers then most of the reason I even have for coming here goes away. Can't talk sales without any data, after all. I still have a project that needs finishing, but it will never be complete without the necessary numbers. I miss the days before NPD started treating sales numbers as something that deserves as much secrecy as nuclear launch codes. For years we got numbers every month, readily available at numerous websites. Now it almost seems as if they believe that we plebians aren't worthy of knowing something like how much a game console sold. No, that's valuable information, and only those with deep enough pocketbooks are worthy of it. Meanwhile, in Japan we get hardware and top 20 software numbers every week free of charge. NPD really, really needs a competitor that can gather reliable sales figures and publish them publicly.

So, it just so happens that I have access to some numbers this month.

....What? You asked for numbers. I gave you some!
