Projection Time:
Projected USA+Canada rates using July Canada data & Total sales/canada (for June*) in a sales extrapolation:
* June was 5 weeks, July is 4 weeks. Also, Nintendo seems to have shipped a higher than normal amount of Wiis to Canada, since Wii Canada sales suggest Canada = 12% of North America, while all other totals suggest 5-8%
** PSP in Canada appears to be anamoly this month, as Sony prepares for the new model PSP...
DS Projected Total: 608,313 (562,558 for the USA projection)
Wii Projected Total: 298,909 (253,490 for the USA projection)
PSP Projected Total: 97,166**(91,342 for the USA projection)
PS2 Projected Total: 281,763 (261,484 for the USA projection)
PS3 Projected Total: 242,893 (227,856 for the USA projection)
Xbox 360 Projected Total: 205,522 (192,403 for the USA projection)
GBA Projected Total: 134,950 (125,200 for the USA projection)
