I've only really started following VGchartz closely and it seems weird it can be on a Thursay, or as late as Tuesday the week after. (I know last week was E3 delays) I don't mind as such i'm just curious.

Buying order: Switch, better pc

I've not been here for long but I think they come quite regularly. Starting thursday you can expect new numbers. This update was delayed quite a bit and I think the assumption that it was because they wanted to wait for NPD was correct.

If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Well, the lastest NPD doesn't cover the week ending June 7th.

The update did entail a massive update for may. And to better gauge the sales of the first week of june it would be best to know the sales of May.
