The 70k wasn't really much to do with the tables, it was me working out from the tables using May when VGC had sales above that of what the shipment would be about.... now that could be a discrepancy with the tables.... except that it made me check the end of each quarter number. So the 70k is actually the difference between what was actually shipped (using Nintendo fiscal) and what VGC had as sales... so it is not a problem of anything we have worked out because it is using the exact shipping figure.

I think the most recent numbers seem very good, so it would probably just want sorting out between that odd Q1 number (70k) and then spreading out the opposite across the few months after it.

so for instance the sales before the end of March might be lowered in total by 200k (which gives a "supply" of 270k... slightly more than the end of 2006)

of course then that would pull down all sales after it by 200k... so if we assume the current LTD is correct then 200k of sales could be added later on (spread across June-August)

The thread so good, people are making threads about it (meta-threads?).

That's a bumping.

This is a good analysis, thanks TWRoO.

I agree with all the people saying that production was increased back in August. I remember in July Nintendo saying they would increase production next month.
