Hardware/Software Trends for First 18 Months

[Bond]

I have a hard time believing these numbers. Is this Nintendo simply aggregating the NPD numbers or did they pull some wizardry?

Edit: Is Wii Sports considered in the software sales / attach-rate?

I pointed out that Wii Sports isn't included in the software sales which would be the same for attach rate.

And like I said even if there was a HUGE mathematical error, the gap is pretty wide.

Now mind you, this is also a tiny window of time, but we do know the Wii has outsold the 360's software since December of last yr on a month to month basis.

Right, but back to my original question... is this Nintendo aggregating the NPD numbers or their own "take" on the numbers?

Trust me, I wouldn't disguise a praise Wii thread.
I am simply relying sales figures here.

I assume their source would have to be the NPD since the hardware numbers match up.
Also I'm assuming the numbers are of course rounded.
