so gfk like npd is fake? vg chart is in true? why?

In an interview with GameSpot AU, Ephraim quoted figures from data trackers GfK Australia, which show that the PS3 has sold more than 50,000 units since it was launched on March 23, 2007. In comparison, the Wii has sold 100,000 units since its launch on December 7, 2006. "Based on GfK since launch, PS3 has been the number one next-gen console, outselling Wii and Xbox 360 every week, except for last week," Ephraim said

 

 



Ah i see, it's talking about the australian tracking service

 well, that tracker must be off then =)

sony own australia :)



The PS3 sold a ton of units everywhere on its first week but after initial demand was satisfied the number of units sold dropped dramatically. Now suppose sales per week went like the following

25,000 + 10,000 + 5,000 + 2,000 + 1,000 + 1,000 + 1,000 + 1,000 + 1,000 + 1,000 + 1,000 + 1,000 = 50,000

And over the same timeframe the Wii has been selling like this

4,000 + 4,000 + 4,000 + 4,000 + 4,000 + 4,000 + 4,000 + 4,000 + 4,000 + 4,000 + 4,000 + 4,000 = 48,000

Certainly, in the time since the PS3 has been released it has outsold the XBox 360 and Wii but it is likely that this will change in the very near future. 



Sony is still 3rd in Australia using there figures and Vgchartz figures which are almost simlar(Rounding proberly).
