I still say the NPD is throwing numbers to keep VG looking bad, a very easy short term way to make them look better.

In VGC i trust

Lets face it, the only sports game wii fans like is in fact....wii sports.

How do you know that?

 

Probably from the lack of sports titles charting for the Wii that don't have to do with Wii Sports.

 

But I'm saying... Wii Sports only charts here on VGChartz because it's bundled.  So, the question remains, how would he know?  Also, NPD has Tiger 08' higher on Wii than 360 LTD.

2008, year of the ps3, etc etc. September will fall to the side of the 360, as well.

October, we'll see!

Oh, and FYI:

NPD says that 2.3 million copies of Madden sold through in August. Adding up PS2, PS3, X360 and Wii numbers gets us to 2183.3k. That'd mean that there were *roughly* 116,700 Madden 09's sold between the PSP and DS.

Not counting HW bundles.

I hope you're not serious. That would make no logical sense, since NPD group makes their money by selling the most accurate data to game companies and industry analysts who rely on it. If they threw the numbers to make VGC look bad, that would be noticed by the companies that buy their data, legitimize VGC in their eyes, and push them toward the free and weekly alternative. It would kill their business.
