So...I think you've gotten to the root of your problems here. If you notice, the only data that's actually confirmed to be from NPD is the Switch sales data (8.7 million for its first 21 months) and Nintendo being the top software publisher for 2018 so far. The rest of the data (software sales and all) should be assumed to come from Nintendo itself, as it is likely that they are adding digital sales to the retail sales estimates given by NPD (which is definitely the case for that first eleven days sales data for Smash Ultimate). In other words, you're taking offense at the thread title being inaccurate (as it should read Nintendo instead of NPD). |
No, the problem comes from the very first paragraph of the artile and the "according to NPD line". The rest is fine.
