actually no

the 360 is actually more undertracked by VGC (when comparing to NPD) than the PS3 is YTD.

You're basing that off of the flawed assumption that 87% is the actual ratio for Americas sales. Does everyone remember this?

http://www.cbc.ca/news/technology/story/2010/10/05/sony-playstation-holiday-preview.html

We haven't gotten an update from Canadian NPD in a while. If Sony are on target for the goal they mention there than the percentage is likely noticeably less than 87% for PS3. Obviously the ratio isn't static across all platforms, In SW or hardware. A good example on the SW side wold be GT5. It sold almost 300k in Canada last year.

2. Persona 4 Arena
3. Wipeout HD
4. Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2
5. Super Street Fighter 4

LOL ethomaz you had to throw in the GT5 numbers haha.

Yeah... after the price drop the game just go from 3,500 to 5,500 .

I could tell undertracked... but people here think that's annoying... even when I was right (aka. NPD September).

I wouldn't be surprised that in a week where the IPhone4S released, and the same week that Jobs died, that there would be this kind of retraction on 3DS Sales.

“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

Week Ending 08th Oct 2011

	WII	XBOX 360	PS3
BEFORE	88,376,050	56,546,401	53,479,932
NOW	88,376,050	56,603,263	53,555,446
Adjustements	0	+56,862	+75,514

Wasnt the Xbox supposed to be undertracked by 26,000 and PS3 by 100,000......

LOL? is that suppose to be the adjustment from last month?

Oh yeah i guess it was, but the gap between the 2 hasnt decreased by 74,000 like it was supposed to be.

SO they increase the console who is less undertracked more and the console who is heavily undertracked less? XD

It looks that way.

actually no

the 360 is actually more undertracked by VGC (when comparing to NPD) than the PS3 is YTD.

So what this video game sales tracking site doesnt actually bother to correct the proper numbers and purposefully leaves them wrong and inaccurate?

And how much was 3DS adjusted down considering everyones harping on about it? i have no idea why anyone could be that upset by it, the console hardly has enough good games for anyone to like the system yet.
