looks like SS is a bit overtracked. Can't imagine that there are ONLY 300k on shelves.
That's like only 2 per store.

Overall amazing accuracy of tracking. I suppose most of those VGC numbers have been adjusted multiple times based on previous releases of official Nintendo shipments, which is only logical, but it still seems like amazing tracking.

eh were is Super Mario Galaxy 2?



    R.I.P Mr Iwata :'(

well, the tracking is pretty good overall

there seems to be some overtracking in most titles, but not huge difference, like +- 10% maximum

we still get to know, approximately which titles did good and how good, it's normal that figures won't be exact, still good tracking VGC



don't mind my username, that was more than 10 years ago, I'm a different person now, amazing how people change ^_^

Nintendo only includes games that have sold over a million in the fiscal year

VGChartz figures end of 2011 in bold

Overtracked or on shelves... it is not simply possible that VGC sales numbers are really wrong?

 

in a here I am coming in here i have not seen a single correct figures.

said so units on shelves are not so big. i mean even a mil units on shelves means that shops have no more that 3-4 copies each.

 

There must be like 250k game/media stores in the world no?
