Oneeee-Chan!!! said: By the way, the VGC numbers for October that I saw before (November 11th) were like this. What's the difference? |
The monthly figures in the "Hardware Year-on-Year" tool don't always use the same weeks as NPD. VGC takes any week that ends in October as being fully October even if it's Week Ending October 1st.
So for this year:
VGC October Sales = September 25th - October 30th
NPD October Sales = October 2nd - October 30th
Basically those numbers from VGC you posted are 5 weeks of sales, and the NPD figure is 4 weeks of sales.
