What's the problem with Benji?, he barely is critizised here, in fact, his numbers are most used here to discuss sales. I don't understand why he points the finger in this forum with such desdain. VGC is still the best site to discuss sales in my opinion. If he wants to find people that will say something awful to him, he will find them always because this is the internet, and people say everything without repercusions. We here discuss everything, even Benji leaks if needed.

I find him very reasonable and he's usually right, so i really don't understand the problem. If it is because some of us dediced to trust more Nintendo official PR, well, sorry then, but it was the correct thing to do, even if it was wrong. I won't apologize for that. If he ended being right, good for him and good for us because that way we could reach the truth of the numbers more accurately.

For my part I'll stay discussing here, while i keep attention to everything Benji says because both are fun and very useful to know about selling numbers.

 

Edit: So now i see, this is because two posters discussed the credibility of Benji in this thread before the leaks, even though there were as many or more who defended him. So that's why this site is a shithole....mmm.

That is because usually NPD leakers on ERA are divas. It isn't the first time we have this, aquamarine and others made similar behaviours. Even "prohibiting" numbers to be posted on VGC. Like how someone that breaks the NDA they signed have any high ground to complain on others leaking to other places?
