No huge surprises here, aside from the fact that the DB admins REALLY need to do more work. Look at this list below. See how many games are missing boxarts? And who published NSMB2 again? That famous action game? The company, it seems as though I should know it...

I get the idea, but I can't add boxarts or names or banners anymore, as I've tried. So, eventually, every game will have no boxart with no information on it? Is that how this site is going to end up? I hope not...

It is a mess no doubt. Apart from the fact that all the active admins are now working on Gamewise.co, we can do nothing about vgchartz DB for the moment, it is closed in exception of a few simple tools like adding release dates and changing the genre of the games, In NSMB2 case, that page isn't even accessible so we can't edit it, and the "real" page doesn't contain sales data: http://www.vgchartz.com/game/70735/new-super-mario-bros-2/.

It surly needs a lot of improvements, but Gamewise is the highest priority for the programmers right now. so don't expect any drastic changes until the next big update.

Nintendo alone dropped by 64% weekly. If that's not doomed, I don't know what is.

Does that invlude games that haven't been put on the charts yet?  The Pikmin 2 new play controls has been out for a while know but it hasn't been registered on VGchartz.  Just wanted to point it out. Thanks

No, Pikimin 2 isn't tracked in the U.S, probably due to the lack of data.

Why has 3ds jumped up so much the past few weeks? NSMB 2?

3DSXL launched in Europe and Japan recently. And for Japan, the XL launched with NSMB 2 and Onitore (Demon Training).

And, of course, Kingdom Hearts 3D came out a while ago in North America.

I see...I didn't realise that not even the DB admins could change things, I thought it was just me...

Interesting. I do my bit for gamewise though, as does everyone. Hopefully things can be tidied up afterwards.
