I can give you two reasons why not to believe NPD in USA.

No Toys R Us.
No Wal-Mart.

You say that the free service is a "guess." That may be true. But the paid paid service is a "guess" too.

Both are highly-educated, well-reasonsed guesses. But they are estimates and approximations. Like almost every figure in an astronomy textbook.

And if you read the gaming media, there are a lot of mention of VGChartz's numbers. They are found in stories from Reuters. They are used on GameTrailers. And NPD must fear VGChartz given the way it talks about this site (without ever mentioning it).

If VGChartz gets hackles when mentioned on the boards in those other places, it is much more because of the immature nature of the fanboy/fangirl posters than the true nature of the numbers.

Sorry to blast you ... but I felt that ioi and VGChartz deserve to be defended. This is the only place where you can get an approximate count of worldwide videogame sales ... and its FREE!!!!

Thanks you ioi, TheSource and everyone else.

Happy New Year.

Long Live VGChartz.
