Rankings Based on EB Games figures from 8/03/04 to 8/09/04

As you can see, there is only one Japanese release on the charts...

What I don't get is if those Madden sales are pre-orders or the shipments expected to go out today or what...

either way, I think this confirms these charts track only what is sold online and not in stores...

What I don't get is if those Madden sales are pre-orders or the shipments expected to go out today or what...

All you had to do was go to EBGames.com and look.... Madden is classifed as Usually ships Within 24 Hours... their classification for now in stock/shipping now.
