Greenburg will probably leak 360 numbers in 2-3 hours assuming they win the month. Even if they come in 2nd in the console race Nintendo will probably give numbers later on tonight and talk up their DS sales. Sony numbers could come from Pachter or some other industry insider although I can see Sony potentially dropping the numbers themselves if GT5 did relatively well. BTW, sorry about the 4 o'clock mix up. That Neo Gaf thread threw me off.
since Greenberg already tweeted about NPD yesterday i don't think we will see him tweet again even 360>DS(0% of coz)
Huge sales. Wonder what the software numbers will be. Microsoft hasn't had a problem releasing them.

Xbox 360 #1 selling console according to NPD 6th month in a row with 1.4 million units, Xbox 50% of total current gen spend.

Not exactly sure what that second part of his tweet means "Xbox 50% of total current gen spend." wut? Is that English?
Also VGC has 360 at 1,232,489 which you gotta note thats lacking a few of the biggest after Black Friday days, I'm guessing he's meaning home consoles only since DS easily beat 360.
Wii is at 1,212,471 for VGC in Nov and PS3 761,995
So I'd like to see the last 3 days added in (with our numbers) and actual NPD numbers, cause I'm wondering if NPD is also listing such a minor difference.

I would assume it either means 1) all console and software sales (360, Wii & PS3) or 2) all device and software sales (360, Wii, PS3, DS & PSP). I'm heavily leaning toward #1.
VGC's figures are based on Americas (Canada, US, Mexico) while NPD is only for the US. VGC predicted NPD sales to be 1,072,265 for the 360 in November, so they were low around 300k.
Wii and PS3 NPD predictions were 1,054,850 and 662,936.
As for actual numbers, good luck with that. Its not made public so someone would have to leak. But to think MS would mislead by announcing fake numbers would be a bit much.

These are not US only numbers are they ?
EDIT: Already a bit late it seems

Yep I know its for the Americas as a whole though isn't NPD data to the 30th? I was thinking those 3 days (nearly half a week when sales are 600k for a single console in 7 days) are BIG which are missing from VGC data so the way I estimate it in my head it's really similar.
