VGChartz methodology: Hardware estimates are based on samples and retail trends in each country, which are then extrapolated to constitute the broader region. This allows us to produce figures that are less than 10% of the actual totals.
This knowledge is compared to the official shipping figures published through the console brands and the estimated figures through regional trackers with a higher market policy than ours. We then update our own estimates to fit those numbers. This can lead to common changes, occasionally in a short period of time. time, but we believe it’s vital to prioritize accuracy over consistency.
Note that our estimates are based on sell-through data (units sold to consumers). In almost all cases the figures released by console manufacturers are based on shipment data (sell-in), where as soon as a device has left the factory and entered the supply chain for delivery it is considered a sale. This is why there is always a difference between the companies’ figures (sell-in) and VGChartz estimates (sell-through), even after we’ve made adjustments. The one exception to that is when a console has been discontinued and the remaining stock has finally sold out – at that point the figures will match.

So, the United States is (as expected) the country that cares about Xbox.
Since this article only covers the Americas, this makes a lot of sense.
*Mexico
I’m Microsoft’s earnings say otherwise.
That is how it has always been son
I think I traded Xbox and Switch for US totals for the month
You are right. Typo corrected.
These articles include all of the Americas, while the front page is just North America. So these articles include Latin America, while the front page doesn’t.
I’m from Los Angeles and now I’m curious why the cover doesn’t come with the Los Angeles numbers.
This is precisely how the first page was set up. When I switched to monthly sales, I may have written this article just for the US. U. S. , North America, or ALL of the Americas.
