lbp2 passed a millon. Killzone 2 sales continue to be a letdown for me personally. 

But killzone 3 is tracking better Lbp 2!

Go Sony, but we need to see better KZ3, LBP2, Dead Space 2, Mass Effect 2,  and Bulletstorm, numbers.

Picked up LBP2 yesterday, didn't get a chance to play it as my PS3 had the YLoD this afternoon.

Oh well. You chaps enjoy it for me!

I wonder if we are still slightly undertracking the PS3 and Wii every week.  Can't wait for financial reports.  Not too far away.  Either way, good numbers for all. 

Also, is there any possibility of the PSP being undertracked in Americas?  I would have thought a price drop from $169.99 to $129.99 would have raised it alittle more than just 10K.  Maybe not.  Sony should really drop the price equally around the globe.  With the NGP coming out this holiday, now would be the time.

Why would that be? Last quarter, VGC was more or less spot on with PS3 and I think, after the massive adjustments that took place before the holidays for it, that's a trend that's here to stay. The Wii, on the other hand, was overtracked rather substantially so I really can't see it being randomly undertracked this time.

I'm just going off of Feb's NPD numbers.  VGC had PS3 at ~377K for NA and SA in Feb, while NPD had PS3 at ~403K just for the US.  I believe the Wii was undertracked by even more.

Then that would apply for 360, too, wouldn't it? 360 was undertracked some 50k, PS3 some 70k and Wii a massive 150k. This is all rather uncommon, though, and, considering how VGC has fared relative to NPF in the past, I hardly think that this is gonna be a trend.

I can't say how many each was undertracked but the adjustments made after NPD are:

Wii up 126k
PS3 up 94k
360 up 59k

Well, Wii was said to be 303k when NPD had it at 454k, PS3 328k versus 403k and 360 486k against 535k from NPD.

VGC is biased against teh Wii CONFIRMED!?

Hummmm... 303k, 328k and 486k are estimation made by The Source using 0,86 ratio for US.

But the real ratio is not 0,86... only ioi know how much the consoles sold in US on VGC.

From these adjustments I can say VGC data for US was something like:

Wii: 328k (not 303k)
PS3: 309k (not 328k - because PS3 sold more outside US than the other two)
360:  476k (not 486k)

Looking good, Nintendo said 34M wii were sold up to end of 2010, and a few days a go they said 35M Wii were sold in US, meaning 1M wii were sold from January 1st to February 28th?  40.89 * 0.86 is 35.165.
