Storm 3 sold 1 million copies across US and Europe by May 2013. Vgchartz have it at selling that much as of January 2014 and with Japan and other countries sales included.

They also have Tekken Tag Tournament 2 as selling 1.5 million copies worldwide as of May 2013 and again Vgchartz only has it at selling almost 1.1 million copies of January 2014. So that may also be under tracked a lot.

One Piece Pirate Warriors 2 sold 590,000 copies in Japan on PS3/Vita by May 2013. Vgchartz has it at selling 530,000 copies as of January 2014.

Bandai Namco in January 2012 said they'd sold 10 million Naruto games. Vgchartz has them at selling 10.9 million games and that would include additional games that had been made since.

Fixed. 

Anyways, VGChartz isn't perfect at tracking sales. They're bound to undertrack or overtrack things sometimes.


The probelm is Vgchartz don't fix numbers even when figures are revealed.

We know this game sold 1.8 million, we know it's undertracked on here considerably but will they ever bother to fix and update the numbers?

Nope.

It has shipped 1.8 million, it hasn't sold 1.8 million. VGC likely does need to adjust their figures, but I'd expect the number to be a lot closer to 1.5 sold at retail.


Yeah I mean't shipped, it is undertracked on this site though by at least half a million and they probably won't bother to change that.

There's a lot of games that probably will never be fixed despite official numbers being released. It's a shame. Congrats to Naruto though. Those Naruto games just keep getting better and better. I'm not even that much of a Naruto fan but the games are just genuinely good.
