chro, do you know those two websites:

http://www.geocities.jp/v7160c_l5/index.html
http://www.geocities.jp/v7160c_l5/wiips3main.html

and

http://www.japan-gamecharts.com/
http://www.japan-gamecharts.com/360.php

Is it possible for you to create a complete list for 360, ps3 and wii which use the most informations from these two website (they don't have the same games, and not always the last number updated for each games, it's why it will be intersting to sum the two informations from these two websites).

What is strange, is they obtain LTD for old games, where they find their numbers?

 

They usually update their numbers with the numbers you post every month (erery week in fact, with the top 30 or more), but for LTD numbers, i don't know how they do.

Famitsu release annual top 500 charts and semi annual top 100 charts.

Yes, they use that, but really, i think they have more data to update LTD numbers.

One day, i have seen they have found them on neogaf, but i don't know this thread on neogaf.

For example, the LTD numbers of tales of vesperia on 360 (wich is for the moment 149,391), how they did to obtain it

Lots of the LTDs aren't up to date. Minna No Golf 5 LTD on PS3 hasn't been updated for ages. You can also see MGS4 hasn't been updated with the latest LTD that crho posted earlier in this thread. Tales of Vesperia number probably comes from the monthly xbox chart published in Famitsu Xbox magazine.

I think you mean this thread on Neogaf:

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=128989

But he doesn't update it anymore.

MGS4 is updated at this link:

http://www.geocities.jp/v7160c_l5/wiips3main.html

Famitsu Xbox magazine, can explain why they have more data for the 360.

For the thread on negaf, it's intersting, because they have numbers for games which are not in the two links i give before.

Maybe, there is another threads on neogaf.

I was looking on Japan Game Charts, but the link you give is better as it's more upto date on that site. Anyway, crho explains it all already. Xbox 360 has more data because Microsoft only has one system so xbox gets all ten spots in the chart. PS3 has to share with PSP & PS2.

OK, but where come the number for the platinum version of blue dragon which has been added recently: only 709 units sold. If i remember, this version was availbable since the first november of 2007.
