I might as well ignore vgchartz numbers every month and wait for NPD to publish the numbers. One question though NPD is for NA only right?

US only.

The big problem is Europe, others, etc... seems a lot undertracked.


Ok thanks I agree with you they do seem undertacked even in Europe.

I think the numbers are just for the United States specifically. I don't know if it includes Canada or Mexico.

Thank you good numbers over all just for the United States.

Not bad reading through all of this. I'm glad that the industry had a decent month.

Hmmm...
Let me see if I got this correct. VGC says 73,269 for 3DS Feb 2013, and NPD says 191,000?
and VGC says 129,505 for PS3, 270,000 under NPD?
So every single thing is undertracked by a whole lot?

edit: For the record, I had a really hard time accepting the 3DS numbers VGChartz was releasing as I knew more than a handful of people who bought a 3DS just for Fire Emblem.  I knew there were at least 6 people who bought one in Feb.

You know, for all the hate Ethomaz gets for constantly saying PS3 undertracked, he is right a hell of a lot lol.

Terrible reporting by VGC.

I don't know, I think ethomaz gets the hate he does for different reasons.  However, I really wouldn't know as I haven't really read up too much on these NPD reports until now where I read nearly every page.

meh dunno why people have a beef with ethomaz. All I see is he loved GT and PS3. He is respectful to other posters too. I think some just finds his enthusiasm annoying
