I think I'll wait for The Source to do his news item because you guys keep throwing different numbers around as to how much VG Chart was in or out for each system :/

No one knows for sure, since NPD didn't release Canada numbers yet. Do they even release them anymore?

In any case, NPD is pretty close to VGC, which means you can just take the average of the two and be happy with it. It's not like NPD tracks sales perfectly either...

Nope, Canada loves Nintendo more than Sony and it has shown in previous months.

TRU and Walmart aren't tracked by NPD , so it's not like NPD is completely accurate anyways. There is a margin of error in their results.

vgcharts was spot on with some things but severely undertracked certain titles (cod4 )



Note: Some games in my collection are no longer owned, but have owned.
