Squilliam said:

PS3: 190k U.S. vs 277k NPD or 87k difference favouring undertracking
Xbox 360: 300k vs 333k or 33k difference which favours nothing. Pretty good.

Alternatively the above is already adjusted for U.S. numbers and they are pretty close to being spot on.

Those are 'predictions', so presumably they are factored in?

A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.

jumped the gun

Anyone can guess. It takes no effort to throw out lots of predictions and have some of them be correct. You are not and wiser or better for having your guesses be right. Even a blind man can hit the bullseye.

Shortages must have impacted the Wii as the software numbers are incredible.

The Wii is doing very decently given the shortage and the lack of Wii.

New Super Mario bros is still first, and is outselling the MW2 versions combined.

Wii Fit+ is selling great, like Wii Sport Resort and Mario Kart just keep on his amazing pac. It looks like he has been undertracked again.
