Even though I am a newbie I've been following the site for a year now. I like to check up on the latest sales  as well as enjoy some of the editorials.

But I am curious about something...

Go Nintendo refuses to post any data from VGchartz and pretty much denies the existence of the site whenever sales data is mentioned. The only thing I heard is that they used some un-official data from the site that turned out to be wrong. Since then Go Nintendo refuses to touch any data that comes from this site.

So what is going on? What was that data that annoyed the guys at Go Nintendo? I heard the hate is so bad that its member started saying that VGchartz was founded by a guy who had a dubious reputation at another site and was banned for apparently releasing bogus sales data.

I don't know about you, but I think the data here is accurate. The official sales data comes very close to what is mentioned here,  so I don't know why the site has so much infamy at Go Nintendo.
