@Mushashi, You have it correct. The first one report does not cite its source for its number. It may have been VGChartz, it may have been estimates from retail shipments, or some other source.
@Alpha, I see the second (later) report as being more pertinent to our prediction for lifetimes sales due to the fact that the number presented there is directly from Capcom. I would assume 1.5 million units as being the high point for this title.
The 1.6 million report is not from Capcom, I actually think the article uses numbers from VGChartz, which are overinflated compared to even later official Capcom sales records.
Oh I understand they were different reports. The question wasn't necessarily for you directly...I'm just wondering how two reports supposedly using data from Capcom can differentiate so much, especially with a later one claiming less old than an earlier one. The market seems to be pricing in something in between the two reports w/ 150 DKP.
Hmm, the report you posted on March 21 had the game selling 1.6 million, but the report from May 23 supposedly from Capcom is only 1.25 million... which is it?
VGC have this at 1.5million. Its selling about 20,000 a week in january. Its a wii title wich means it will sell a small amount every week for a long time so shouldnt this be 1.7million-1.8million lifetime sales?.
