I wonder if any of you guys could help me. Having looked in the old thread to do my comparisons with FFX HD a few days ago, I noticed that the old COMG thread has its limitations, namely that it only goes back to around 2010 and that before Boutros took over, the charts were inconsistant and weren't posted daily

So, I was wondering if anyone has access to a more complete database of this information and if anyone could tell me how to access it. I haven't looked on Garaph, but I don't think he records this stuff

The reason I ask is that if I had the numbers I would be happy to do more comparisons with previous similar games for new titles as they release to help people to interpret the numbers better and simply because I think it will be interesting.

I can't promise to be totally reliable, but I'd certainly try if someone could provide me with the numbers I would need

There used to be an archive of the COMG numbers that went back to the early 2000s but it's been shut down not that long ago and it hasn't resurfaced since :(

Maybe the guy hosting this blog knows where to find the old numbers: http://nipponsalesage.blogspot.ca/

Thanks, that's a shame though, I guess I'll just have to muddle through with recent stuff as I can find it... I appreciate the effort though Boutros

Damn...Sword Art Online Vita's release is far away. Hopefully in those 121 days it can make at least 100 points.

Blimey days, Sword Art Online showed up swiftly after being put up for pre-order. That's mighty impressive and a nice Christmas treat. Hopefully we won't see the big dropoff in sales from the PSP version that we saw with Madoka Magicka.

At least Zelda did something on its last few days too. Getting the same 7 people to pre-order the game every day for 3 days was a good strategy.
