It does.
Famitsu data are for the 100% of retail.
They do track a bit over 90% of retail.
People saying Famitsu numbers doesn’t include Amazon are wrong.
They don’t track Amazon (they are not partners) but they estimate it in their numbers.
All trackers are the same… like NPD that tracks over 80% of the retailers in US (yes NPD tracks less retail than Famitsu… US is way bigger too) and estimate the rest to reach 100%.

Famitsu collects retail data like all the other trackers. They also track download cards/codes which count as a retail unit. Every month they release estimates of the most downloaded games. This makes Famitsu the only tracker to release retail and digital numbers.Unlike Media Create, Famitsu does not track Amazon.co.jp. This has caused ajor discrepancies in the past whenever Amazon would bundle games with Nintendo Switch consoles."

They don’t track Amazon.
They do include Amazon in numbers.
And like the example they do have a margin of error and major difference only happened with hardware when Amazon had exclusive bundles… because they don’t track Amazon and as it is a exclusive bundle to Amazon they don’t have data to estimate it.
Youve been on a crusade to downplay the FF7 rebirth numbers for almost a month now and far be it from me to stop you now.
I’m explaining to you what it is.
And the guy on ERA is not telling the whole truth.
People here knows I should do the same even if FF had sold millions in Japan.
Famitsu data are estimated for 100% of the market like all others trackers.
