April NPD-PDs_ For Better Arguing

The experiment continues. In a quest to give people apples-to-apples sales comparisons, here are the Kotaku-coined NPD-PDs for April. That’s NPDs “per day.” Every month, the NPD group releases video game sales figures for the U.S. market, covering the past month. But the “months” that NPD uses vary in length and don’t align with the the modern calendar. So how do you compare the rise or decline in sales more accurately?(new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c&cid=872d12ce-453b-4870-845f-955919887e1b'; cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c" }).render("79703296e5134c75a2db6e1b64762017"); }); We proposed yesterday that the solution might be to divide each monthly sum by the number of days and present you daily averages. https://kotaku.com/introducing-the-npd-pds-our-new-experimental-stat-5254219 So here is the result: the April NPD-PDs, with changes from March’s figures note in parentheses.
