Admit what mistake!? VGChartz is an independent sales tracking site, and although NPD has more resources when it comes to tracking sales, they could be just as off and we won't ever know. VGChartz isn't here to simply parrot NPD.
Asking VGChartz to admit to a "mistake", is like saying Famitsu should admit it made a mistake each time it isn't in tandem with Media Create.

VGC is not a professional tracking site. Trends and common sense make A LOT in determining weekly numbers.
But that's not important in my opinion because I think that the strength of this site is not in the accuracy on a weekly on monthly basis (that's a plus) but in the HUGE database they offer freely with updated and accurate LTD numbers both hardware and software.
This is why I want them to correct what is obviously wrong (360 doing great after the price cut on the 20GB model), because I want the site to continue being reliable on LTD numbers. The biggest disappointment for me would be seeing this site sticking with wrong numbers for stupid pride reasons.
