Those are some crazy numbers. I'll get to making adjustments to our hardware figures once I am done with the daily news.

Michael Pachter has confirmed actual unit sales of all three hardware.

NSW: 808,000
PS4: 411,000
XBO: 329,000

I think VG algo under-tracked April more than March.  

VGC

NSW 293,763

PS4: 259,426

XBO: 122,782

Actual

NSW: 808,000

PS4: 411,000

XBO: 329,000

So NSW and XBO are both under-tracked by 63% and PS4 by 37%.  Is there too much influence from JP trend affecting the algo?  I know that Nintendo intentionally prioritized US/EU stock over JP, so letting the JP trend affect US/EU estimates would create the exact opposite effect from Nintendo's intended result.
