A post about Japan hardware numbers had a few people saying the same thing, "How come we don't have NA/European numbers?"

A comment by Rubang B (#19) references VGChartz for people who wish to get those numbers. Not a glowing review, but he says it's worth checking out.

We're on digg every now and then, mostly when people submit our weekly sales data, or random news items. We used to get on the front page regularly a few months ago, but have been in a bit of a slump lately.

This site gets badmouthed pretty often as notoriously inaccurate, but at least me, BenKenobi, and Bodhesatva are there to protect our reputation.

I wont post a link, but people on slashdot.org reference VGChartz for the Sales Comparisons Charts every so often.

IOI, you guys should contact gaming websites and do interviews. Basically promote what you offer to the gaming community, and disspell the myths that the website uses fake numbers.

I'm sure sites and sister sites of Engadget wouldn't mind doing an interview with you, ioi. Would you be comfortable with that?

Here are some notable sites probably worth an interview:

Engadget/Joystiq, Afterdawn.com, Gamasutra.com, Arstechnica.com.

I'll contact some people, see if anyone would be interested, and I'll let you know.
