Well and Nintendo Land since that was bundled.

What information that has been released indicates the Wii or Wii U are overtracked? All we know is the 360 outsold them combined, which is gels with the VGC numbers. Also the "nearly 2x" is too ambiguous to make any definitive conclusions, but they fit within that too.
lol so PS3 numbers anywhere between ~650k and ~900k

That doesnt sound promising for Iwata and his 4 games per console to get that 40 million by march. Crazy time in the videogame world. Not really any one system but this decline is profound.

NPD didn't track bundled with hardware.
| smbu2000 said: So the ps3 is overtracked by up to 87k using vgc numbers. Will have to wait for numbers to see how much it's overtracked. Last year the ps3 sold 895k, so the absolute maximum it will be down YoY is nearly 30%. |
What do you base that on??

I know ;)
The only thing anyone can conclude from this is that the 360 might be overtracked by around 100K
and that the PS3 sold over 630K in November..
and that Wii plus Wii U sold less than 1.26M
"The much anticipated launch of the new Wii U console brought in more dollars than the Wii launch in November 2006, up 21 percent from that launch month. With an average price 35 percent higher for the Wii U at launch compared to the Wii, this is an example of how consumers are willing to come out and spend when they see the value of the product. Comparing Wii sales from November 2011 to Wii sales combined with Wii U sales in November 2012, dollar sales increased by 76 percent.” - NPD industry analyst Liam Callahan
With there infos the guys in GAF are trying to math the Wii U numbers...
476K
Recalculation: 427K
