I think the preorders tracking is the problem, not the weekly sales figures. Quite a few games have been significantly overtracked in preorders. Quite often happens to JRPGs especially for some reason

Preorder have never meant to be taken as very accurate. Why does this thread pop up every single week?

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

Oh nos, people get pre-orders numbers wrong, we may as well close the site right now and migrate to the sigless neogaf forum (which I am sure 80% of this site are already members of that site anyway)
