So you have to pay 10k to know something that you're not allowed to talk about ? That seems to be the worst deal ever.

I thought it was like TV ratings: you can talk about them on your website BUT have to pay for it first.

We couldn't come close to being able to afford NPD. More and more video game sales numbers are locked behind a paywall now. The only consistent place we get hardware figures is Japan thanks to Famitsu. Though Spain seems decent of late even if it is behind by a few weeks. Plus we get a rough idea of monthly numbers in the US and UK unless something leaks. 

Yeah I can imagine, and you're still managing to be close enough, so that's okay I guess
