Wait wait.Thats not COMG fault then.COMG only points how the game is going to do first week and thats that.With that information, you can then speculate at will how the game will fare LT.One good example of this is Splatoon.It had a good opening(Around 110k if im not mistaken) but as we all know, it is now above 1.35 million in Japan alone.
Again, its just used to give an idea.Sometimes each point equals to 700 copies, sometimes 1500, but usually is around 1k.Can it get really wrong once every while?Yeah sure.But it more than makes up for the information, the tendency and the probability of a games success, making a reliable source of information.
Edit:Plus it only gives the pre-order information from COMG.There is more than 1 videogame retailer in Japan.Further cementing the fact that you have to take the numbers as a estatistic, an estimative, not actual hard numbers.

Yeah but I recall it was horribly wrong on first week sales as well. Some people trust in it almost religiously and take their list as a fact before seeing the official sales.

Yeah, then those people are wrong.But I feel like users here are very councious that a game can perform a little better or worse than what the COMG says.
