Still, I think it dropped like 250k, a huge amount.

Typical Vgchartz guessing. Just like the Japan Wii numbers. Take the numbers on this site as a very rough indication, nothing more than that. You can't use them as evidence for anything in any sort of argument because they are guesses and nothing more.

VGChartz only uses like 2% of all retailers for their numbers. As that number grows it will get better.


Regardless, it doesn't change the fact that for accurate numbers this site is not where to look and we have to wait for Charttrack, gfk etc.. to inform us regarding EU, Famitsu/Media Create for Japan and NPD for US. They are the respected trackers other then Nintendo/Sony/Microsoft.

Those thinking that Vgchartz numbers are credible are just delusional, they may be credible in the future, but that time is a long way away.

Very faint indication (at best) purposes only is what Vgchartz numbers are useful for.


Not true, on a overall basis they are very accurate, within 10-15% accuracy, only on a weekly/monthly basis are they every really off, and they are improving, for what they cost, they are an amazing value


For what they cost?  Dude, that doesn't matter. The numbers are not credible and should not be trusted. This is fact.

There is a reason why mentioning Vgchartz numbers on IGN, Neogaf etc... = Instant joke material.  Not accurate. Improving? Maybe, Accurate enough to be trusted? Definitely not.
