Actually no.

Software that comes with a hardware accessory is counted (Wii Fit, Wii Play).
Software that is included with a hardware accessory isnt counted (Kinect, Move).

It is a fine line.  If Nintendo had called Wii Fit. Nintendo Wii Board with Wii Fit it wouldnt count in software sales according to NPD.

Oh thanks.

So NPD counts Forza 3 that comes with Hardware bundle?

lol ......... no!

I'm confuse now... so all games bundled with hardware isn't counted like Forza 3, GT5, Unchated 2, etc.

Ok, take it as this. NO bundles are counted, EXCEPT for instances like Wii fit and Wii Play, where you're buying them for the game, not the HW.

No games bundled with consoles count.

Thanks.

NPD shows inacurate numbers for software... sad.



Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood (combined platforms) -- 1.14MM
Donkey Kong Country Returns -- 430.5K
Gran Turismo 5 -- 400K



 

Numbers from Gaf.

:edit: beaten.

GT5 almost dead on including the Best Buy bundle.



Proudest Platinums:
1. Gran Turismo 5
2. Persona 4 Arena
3. Wipeout HD
4. Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2
5. Super Street Fighter 4

Did anyone leak PSP numbers?



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.

I know if the Wii sold as much as the PS3 did. Everyone in the Industry would be reporting on the death of Nintendo. How investors, developers, and gamers need to jump ship it over for them. Because it's the PS3 we will let it stay in it's coma on life support. Wait for the day when it finally proves why it was created. LOL! 

PS3 The Next Year System!

Hence the comment in my edit. Oh, and Fable 3 had an amazingly good hold in it's second month.

5. Super Street Fighter 4

The question is how many GT5 bundles were sold in US?
