You are absolutely right, no one is trying to obfuscate the numbers. It's no wonder Japan is in recession, Media Create/Famitsu/Dengeki needs to shut down the release of sales numbers to the public and make money off of it like NPD right now. There is no con-spira-ceeee. Kekekekekeke. Btw PS4 sold 700k in October. A NPD leaker told me, tee hee.

Indeed i am :)

Well I just emailed NPD asking them how I could receive the video game sales numbers, and they told me it would cost between $5,000-$35,000. LOL so much for that idea!


A day...?

Between 5k and 35k dollars? Screw that.. Who would pay that much for those NPD numbers?!

You do realise that a lot of the data used to calculate Wii U sales comes directly from Nintendo, right? And the rest comes from sources that have been proven to be reliable.


Is it a hard/accurate number? Not an estimation, actual results...


The sources leaks actual results from the NPD report, if that's what you meant.

It costs that much? Wowza.


Yup. I was hoping it'd be like $50 or something. Who would pay $35,000 to see how many PS4s sold in the US? Lol

Really? I was expecting at least 50K, so it's less than I thought.

It's really not that much if you use that data for more than entertaining your curiosity.
