Forums - Website Topics - Is VGChartz facing an impending crash?

I've got to admit I've been thinking that the site looks like it could be on its way out, it's clearly not a sales site anymore (unfortunately) it's such a shame because it was a brilliant source for that info. Although I still don't think there's a gaming website that has a forum community like this one and that would be my main reason for being sad if the site did close. Maybe they should just give up on sales and rename it VGNews and forums!? Because at the moment the name is misleading, especially to newcomers.

I hope the site can carry on, we don't know the reasons for the stop in updates but what ever it is I hope they sort it out or at least keep the forums going.

It's time for Vgchartz to become a hardcore porn site. All in favor?

Wouldn't make a difference, the way some people post you'd swear blind they were typing one handed.



Even though they lacked accuracy most of the time, I really liked the (almost) weekly numbers we had last year. Only reasons to keep coming back really are the decent community here, the work some members do to keep some kind of sales data and of course the salt every one throws at each other that is always fun to watch. Numbers would be the cherry on the top of the cake, if we had em.

I think most would settle for monthly numbers, which is probably the best idea anyway, as more concrete data is out on a monthly basis rather than a weekly one.

Software tracking should just be dropped altogether tho, its so far from accurate because of digital sales its pointless. Just stick to reporting software milestones released from companies and possibly GFK when available.


Agree about HW numbers. Fortnighly would be the finest, if possible, but I guess with ioi having now two jobs and even a life out of the net (the horror!  ), weekly updates aren't viable anymore.
About SW, if he can get them, I'm fine with physical sales data, if he can add digital ones when available, so much the better, but knowing he totally depends on publishers and devs for the latter, I surely won't blame him when they don't release them, if anything I'll think they just aren't good enough to be revealed.

Kudos to both of you for the question and the answer!

I'm pretty sure Nintendo's collaborating with ioi for the NX...

Lots of speculation, that's for sure!

Watch or produce? Sales of porn movies would get rather boring, I think.

We could have a site dedicated to porn accidents, call it "VGsharts" intead.



I still visit the site several times a day. It's a habit.
