Umm like your last 20 posts?

Thats exactly what you have been arguing this whole time that Amazon is Nintendo biased because it ranks alot higher without NPD numbers having a huge lead.

So you missed the post about gauging how well it's selling by using the other 99 items selling around it. Or the bit about when multiple bundles are selling above another console. Rankings do play a part but I can't remember saying that ranking alone is the the only factor

Like i just said, for all we know #1 sold 10,000 last month while #50 sold 5,000 so using the other items around it means nothing.

Ill repost this

 

January Amazon rankings
NSW-13, 17
PS4-34, 53, 63
XBO-52, 68, 85

13 & 17 could be 8000 & 7000 units for a total of 15,000

34, 53 & 63 could be 5500, 4500 & 2500 for a total of 12,500

52, 68 & 85 could be 4700, 2300 & 2000 for a total of 9000.

Now lets say NPD figures for January are

NSW-300k
PS4-250k
XBO-180k

That would make the Amazon % of NPD totals the same for each console which would result in no bias.
