VGChartz Methodology: {Hardware} estimates are primarily based on retail sampling and traits in particular person international locations, that are then extrapolated to signify the broader area. This sometimes permits us to supply figures that find yourself being inside 10% of the particular totals.

This knowledge is commonly in contrast towards official cargo figures launched by the console producers and figures estimated by regional trackers with better market protection than ourselves. We then replace our personal estimates to carry them into line with these figures. This may end up in frequent adjustments usually inside a brief house of time, however we really feel it is essential to prioritise accuracy over consistency.

Notice that our estimates are primarily based on sell-through knowledge (models offered to shoppers). In virtually all circumstances the figures launched by console producers are primarily based on cargo knowledge (sell-in), the place as quickly as a tool has left the manufacturing unit and entered the provision chain for supply it’s thought of a sale. This is the reason there’s at all times a distinction between the businesses’ figures (sell-in) and VGChartz estimates (sell-through), even after we’ve made changes. The one exception to that’s when a console has been discontinued and the remaining inventory has lastly offered out – at that time the figures will match.
