Considering how much difficulty they have tracking hardware I don't have any faith in VGC's software numbers. When a game doesn't sell many copies to begin with it's very easy to wind up overtracking it by an order of magnitude if you just assume that it moves a few hundred or thousand copies per week as VGC is wont to do. It drives me up the wall to see people arguing that such and such a game (lately Bayonetta 2 and, of all things, Wonderful 101) didn't flop by pointing to VGC numbers, but aside from the fact that shitting on the numbers too much has been discouraged by mods, it feels weird to even try to argue the point since, well, we're posting on VGC.

I'm of the same mindset. When it gets to long-term sales of games, VGC starts getting hopelessly lost assuming titles keep selling rather consistently over time. It's bizarre.

Games do sell consistently over time. It just is dependent on stock to be reshipped. W101 likely hasn't had a new copy printed in 12 months. It should be double digits to selling nothing very soon.
