We don't track Wal-Mart, so it will make no difference to our numbers.

 

 That never made any sense to me.  How can you even hope to be accurate when you don't include the nation's biggest retailer?

 

 It's not that VGC doesn't want to track Walmart, Walmart just doesn't release their numbers.... to anyone.

          Wow, I did not know that.  

 

On top of this ioi uses other tracking firms and official releases from the console manufacturers and videogame publishers to estimate the sales. Although the numbers are never 100% accurate on any given week, he has enough data for the sales numbers to be accurate relative to eachother, and over time the numbers become more accurate.
