| fatslob-:O said: I don't believe that to be necessary since I realize the limitations of NPD data ... I even once argued that we shouldn't take it's data to be gospel since they also have to extrapolate for their estimates too when their possibly blind to as much as what's going in the other half of the retail marketplace since mainstream retailers such as Walmart, Costco, Amazon and others don't share data with the NPD group ... However, since it's the only remotely reliable research group for the North American market that frequently releases data so it's the only tool we have until quarterly reports ... (but even with quarterly reports, numbers are not guaranteed to be reported either) |
It is rather interesting that despite seemingly going for an unbiased or fact-based character you always downplay the Switch in practically every sales thread. Are you just trying to be factual and/or play Devil's advocate or what?
