Also the software figures corroborate the correctness of the GAME figures released several days ago:

They took these numbers directly from Chart-Track and not the GAME report, so we have two different organizations obtaining the same numbers.

I'm not even going to bother.

The Wii drop is certainly a recent phenomenon, only a few months old, otherwise Nintendo wouldn't be so bullish in their End-of-Year projection for 2009-2010. The 360 on the other hand probably dates all the way back to the last price cut.

Why not.

Just a remark, chart track is supposed to track 90% of the UK market. So it's certainly the better tracker in the world, so how can it be possible they make so big mistake to estimate the 10% they don't track. I think particulary to the DSI which was preliminary tracked at 100k during its first week and then at 92k.

If with the coverage they really track, they had obtain 90k sales, they could have extrapolate to 100k for the entire UK market, and so they have primary estimate to 10k the sales they don't know. But with their adjustement next, they give 92k, and so they change the 10k by 2k (or it's absolutely not that!!!!). It's enormous i find.

What do you think about that?

Edit: it's certainly not that, because, it's 103,000 and not 100,000, as i thought remember:

Update: Chart-Track has now revised its figures for the DSi launch, down from 103,000 to 92,000 units.

This is all very exciting and am looking forward to the clarification.

Exactly what I have been saying when I saw those numbers.  I don't see anyway the 360 could be outselling the DS and anyway PS3 could be selling as much as Wii.

Offficial GfK numbers from France put Xbox 360 up 50% YoY through May, official GfK numbers but Xbox 360 at up 127% through March in Switzerland. In Japan Xbox 360 numbers are up over 200% YoY, I really don't see anything illogical about the UK Xbox 360 numbers. When you take rounding in to account these figures are well inside what we have seen in other countries.

To be fair about the DS:

Since GfK rounds, and they are tracking TWO DS properties, it does not mean that the Xbox 360 beat the DS 2:1. For all we know, both DSes sold closer to 400,000 but were rounded down.

I know this is irelivent but i went into my local Game on saturday and had a quick chat with the manager. He told me that they had actually not sold a PS3 in a week while the 360 had been doing a lot better then the Wii of late. He informed me that the PS3 sales had dropped severely a month ago and to try and combat that Game had now put together a new bundle. He said it was a bundle with a 80GB PS3 and 4 games, being Ghostbusters,Infamous,Fight Night 4 and Call of Duty 4 Game of The Year Edition, he did not say a price but said around £300. For three brand new games and a game that is possibly the best on any format this generation that is pretty amazing. So i think from what he said if it really is true that he had not sold a PS3 in a week then these numbers could actually be on the right path. Guess we will see.

@hruken

so did he not sell a single wii either?

otherwise your "conclusion" is weird

as PSWii are tied in UK according to these numbers
