@Just_Ben,
I'm using two sets of data. One is VGC for the TREND, not the numbers. I've gotten screwed by them too many times to trust the numbers, but as I've been saying for 2 months, the trends are mostly reliable. The other is the August NPD Future.
Showing my work:
The August NPD Future settled at 3.19, which unless I'm seriously mistaken, means it sold 31900 copies in the first month of sales. Taking the "times 3" principal applied by Powertrade, that gives 95700 copies in the US. Then, taking the VGC trend for Tiger 07 on the Wii, we see that "other" regions total 80% of the US total. So, 95700*(.8)=76560. 95700 US copies + 76560 "other" copies = 172260 copies total, lifetime worldwide.
Check my math, and my logic, but I think it's pretty irrefutable that this game shouldn't be valued at any more than 20 DKP. Unless someone can post reliable numbers for other regions, or a better argument why I'm wrong, this is what we have to go with.
