VGChartz Methodology: Hardware estimates are based on retail sales patterns and trends in individual countries and are then extrapolated to represent the wider region. This allows you to extract numbers that are usually within 10% of the current total.
This data is regularly compared to official shipment figures released by console manufacturers and figures estimated by regional trackers that cover more markets than we do. We then update our estimates to bring them into line with those numbers. This may result in frequent changes over a short period of time, but we believe it is important to prioritize accuracy over consistency.
Note that our estimates are based on sales data (units sold to consumers). In almost all cases, the figures released by console manufacturers are based on shipment data (sales), where sales are considered as soon as the device leaves the factory and enters the supply chain for delivery. That’s why there’s always a difference between the companies’ numbers (through sales) and the VGChartz estimates (through sales), even after we make adjustments. The one exception to this is when the console is discontinued and the remaining stock eventually sells out – at which point the numbers will match.
