Forums - Sales - UK 360 SALES?

Yo what up guys?

Yeah anyway, i read somewhere that the 360 is gonna reach 2 million units sold in the upcoming weeks which is great news. But my problem is that on VG Chartz they have the 360 sittin on 2,130,000 units or something like that so its being over tracked by more than 130,000 units. Does anyone know if this will be changed in the next update of numbers so that people get a better knowledge of how the 360 is doin and to improve the sites accuraccy? I mean overtracking a console by over 130,000 units is a pretty big "error" (or whatever you want to call it) and yes i am well aware of Ioi's policy of it will be balanced out over time but wouldn't it be easier just to update the numbers?

You need to provide evidence of this statement of 360's in UK soon to reach 2mil. Need to know when it was said and who said it. After that then something might be adjusted. If this has already been provided then please carry on.

130k is less than 10% off the real number, but ioi already said he will adjust it, this was posted before.



 

mM

Really? yeah i probably wasnt here cause i got banned for 2 days.



Ahh...I was wondering if that was the case since he didn't provide any evidence himself. nvm then.

it was in the last article about "others" sales, i think.  I read that too, and I'm pretty sure it was on here and kotaku.

ioi addressed this already: http://vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=22351

Funny how I've seen people in various threads wanting ioi to adjust his UK 360 sales because it's "overtracked" by 130k. Yet, these same people ignore that ioi "overtracked" the PS3 by 60k. ioi has "overtracked" LTD UK sales of the 360 by 6.1%, PS3 by 5.2%. OH NOOOESS!!!1!!!11!

 



i thought ioi always adjusted with NPD



Don't worry ioi will adjust, its not a big deal, a margin of error within 10% is fine.
