    NPD data is 100% of retail sales AFAIK. They have to do more estimating for Walmart (and maybe a few others), but the data represents 100% of retail sales.

    It is for a PSP version of Gran Turismo.

    Just kidding. Though the data came from NPD, I got that info from Gamespot:
    http://www.gamespot.com/wii/puzzle/wiiplay/news.html?sid=6233163

    FYI, normally if I don't post links, the data came from NeoGAF. Either from NPD directly (like the OP), or from posters in that thread that have some numbers/estimate. Guess I could link to that stuff too...

    Kind of worried for Evolution Studios. Last two games haven't done all that great.

    I think I've figured out that these are worldwide numbers. Are they also shipped, or sold?



    More data, with some repeating (taken from Raw64life's post at NeoGAF):
    At least Persona PSP did kind of OK...I guess. IIRC, they were shooting for 50K in Japan, so I would assume 25K would be OK for the first month in the US (granted, Japan sales ended up being 2x-3x what they expected IIRC).

    And PC rankings:
    From NeoGAF, via NPD. Numbers in the parenthesis represent rankings from last month (asterisks are for new games).

    Yep it's worldwide/sold.

    Are you sure? Granted, shipped=sold for a publisher, but they looked like shipped to me, after I looked at some other numbers. Uncharted shipped over 2.6M IIRC, and that number is at 2.61M. We only get sales from 2 regions reliably, so it would be strange if they matched up so well. Speaking of which, what is the source of the data?

    since you like putting up data, you should put up some data on video game rentals too.

    I probably would, but I don't think anyone really tracks that (or releases their findings anyway).

    Although I think it is illegal in Japan and maybe a few other places, so we sort of know those numbers.
