So does Mexico / Latin America fall under Rest of the World? Im curious why it would not be part of NA data. By my calculations, the gap between PS5 and Series (if just US / CA) is 187k but if you add in Latin America it drops to just 25k.

Correct. Mexico and the rest of Latin America fall under rest of the world on the Platform Totals page. https://www.vgchartz.com/charts/platform_totals/Hardware.php/

That is how it was set up well before I took over the hardware estimates. We could probably change it so instead of "North America" it is "Americas" and we remove Latin America from rest of world and it to the new "Americas."

Interesting.  I always thought North America included several of the Latin Countries.  Which countries are included on the Home Page of VGChartz for North America there?  

I just double checked and the front page is North America only - US and Canada. So the label is wrong and should only have the US and Canadian flags. The way the hardware was set up years and years ago is it lumps all of Latin America together, while US and Canada are separate.
