See here's the thing with VGChartz: it's completely inaccurate. It even measures its own inaccuracy against NPD which is actually used by market analysts.
How inaccurate is VGChartz? Well in June 07 there were between a +9 and -22 per cent differences - that's a whopping 29% swing! When you are measuring units in the millions this could equate to an error rate of between 900K units to 2Million.
I'd post the link for the VGChartz to NPD errors but it won't let me...

proving that casual games, plus the innovative Wii-mote are proving to be a bigger hit worldwide than hardcore gaming on the Xbox 360.
er...
factor in the price difference as well?
This is the second time that i've seen these figures (from a different source) so there must be something in it.
I don't think price will be much of a factor, the Core system is very close on price to the Wii, but Nintendo have said all along that they intend to go after different markets with the Wii. Seems that its working in their favour All i can say is well done Nintendo.
And Galaxy, Smash Bros, Metroid, Wii Fit and the like are still to come...
Nintendo teh winnar.
Watch all the Xbox360 owners go and get a Wii due to the Wiimote hack
I'm getting a Wii just before my birthday and I've said before it, but the Wii is generally more fun with friends around and thats the deciding factor on why to get one

lol why would 360 users get a wii? it has a poor lineup of games and the graphics are terrible(yes the average joe does care about graphics). i would get wii for one two games, zelda and re4 and there both on the gamecube so its cheaper to buy that instead hehe. i dont know which line up of games is better, the ps3 or wii lol
