What a stupid time to adjust.
NPD and shipment data just around the corner, so VGChartz updates with no real idea where anything was/is over/undertracked.
Wasn't the reason that PS2 sales were never adjusted, because VGC didn't know where to put them? How can they magically just know now where to put/take away sales? |
Now we have more accurate numbers than before, even if they may still be wrong. It's not like by updating now, we can't update again in a few days. It's better to have fairly accurate numbers now & adjust later than have fairly innacurate numbers now & still adjust later. I'm pretty sure the numbers will probably be adjusted accurately in the future, but in the meantime, it seems smart to make the data at least a little more accurate using what we've learned. |
Precisely, I really don't get the whole adjusting now means we maybe wrong later. The numbers are always "technically" incorrect and then refined in accuracy as we get new figures.
Its 3 weeks till all the shipment data is in Carl and another week or so after that for the full adjustments to start occurring, thats 4 weeks. 4/52 = 1/12 of the year that we're asking for adjustments to be put on hold. I applaud ioi for trying to keep the adjustments happening whilever new data arrives.

One week to wait for MS

Imagine what you could do in 7 days though (create a world perhaps?), thats a long time!
