Because criticizing the data management of VGChartz on VGChartz forums is really bold.

No, Cyber Monday = Monday not Sunday anyway lol

lmftfy

Hopefully things will recover.

You may be onto somthing!!!!!!!

I was wondering if it was a glitch on my own end or if my eyes were acting wierd..... phew thank God I am not the only one seeing it.

Nah its something to do with the original post editing all posts after it to also be bold. I dont know how it works but Ive seen it happen around here before. These forums have a bunch of hilarious glitches and exploits

OP used the bold command you see at the bottom right of the forum page (so, above the Quick Reply box), but didn't close the command or whatever is called.

So you go [ b ] and then [ / b ] He forgot the second thingy. Happened to me once at COMG; embarrasing night.

VGC never posted Global charts before MC. US and UK charts updated on Monday, Europe on Tuesday, and then used MC + Famitsu /2 on Wednesday. Global charts were on Friday? I don't remember those.

ANYWAY, VGC has always been as accurate and reliable as it is today, the glory days were simply because they did it on time, not accurately. If you ask me, VGC is better than nothing, and heck the margin errors are not even that big. PS4 is undertracked by 1 million? That's what, less than 5%?

And let's say indeed every system and game is undertracked and/or overtracked... the totals are still pretty reliable. 3DS > PS4 >>> XB1 >>>> PS Vita ~ Wii U. We get a fairly realistic view at how the industry is holding nowadays.

Of course, I don't think anyone should quote VGC as a source for modern systems or games. The site has really good old data, not so much from Gen 7 onward. But hey, I write once every new moon for the site. Maybe I was brainwashed and my word is biased...

I'm still here. Chillax, everything will be fine.
