4033% of 0 is still 0.

I do make myself laugh.

Although I think that if they sold 0 last week then they wouldn't say that sales increased by 4033%

Amazon is a horrible indicator of just about everything. Also the % it goes up isn't a sales %. It's the percentage of sales from the number it last was on the sellers list. (IIRC.)

During last December Gamecube was #5 on the Amazon best sellers list.

I understand that this percentage is in relation to the last week's low stock bundle, so it isn't like the sales will be very high, but it will be an improvement, because this bundle shipments are selling out as soon as they become available ( gamestop also reported selling on the web all of its July 7th shipment like two weeks ago). The last two weeks PS 3 sales in NA didn´t include this bundle sales, so the week corresponding to the shipment, will see an increase in PS3 sales ( in NA)

Look your new here.

Here's the thing. People have tried to use these Amazon figures plenty of times to draw conclusions... it rarely works out well.

Amazon is an anomoly that just doesn't work when trying to draw conclusions about anything.

If sony can keep up with demand for this bundle for the next month or two then they can easily hit 16 million by October of 2008

Not if it eats into the 40 GB sales.
