Just looking to shipped numbers makes me thinks maybe NPD was wrong in their reports.

VGC was almost perfect tracking this time.

Er there is a 200k gap between us and NPD, we have 700k on shelves so it could be either way. Not saying NPD is right or wrong and same for VGC, but how you arrive at that from these shipment numbers I don't know.

You think is there less than 700k on shelves? I already think this number low for a console sold across 38 countries.

So or NPD is wrong or EMEAA numbers is ever worst for 360 (200k up in US / 200k down in EMEAA).

Stop trying to be so desperate for 360 to be overtracked or w/e you have no idea if 700k is enough right now, it fluctuates from 500k to 1 mill or even more either way sometimes.

I'm not trying anything... just saying VGC is more accurate than NPD this time... and everytime the VGC show just 500-700k on shelves there were some stockout reports.

MS need to sort their maths out, keep saying they shipped 13.7 mill 360's this year, but it adds up to 13.5 not 13.7

lol percent... US is bigger then other countries.

- Chart-track tracks 7000 retail stores or approximately 90% of the UK market.
- NPD tracks 60% of the US market.

Just it .

>1.7 ... why so coy Microsoft ... come on, why can't they 0.5 or give clarification ..

So... maybe anything between 1.70m and 1.75m (to round to 1.7m).
