Can somebody clarify this?

On an SKU basis, games that are in the top 10 for the month that aren't reflected in our title-level best-selling list include Kinect Sports from Microsoft, UDraw Studio with UDraw Tablet from THQ, and Dance Central from Microsoft.

Does it mean those games just missed the top 10?

It means individually

So something like this I imagin

1. Call of Duty BO 360
2. Epic Mickey
3. Ass Creed 360
4. Kinect Sports

(extreme example but you get the point)

It means those games would've made the top 10 if not for the new format.

UDraw is a hit!
