You are correct!

@Montana: Actually, according to Malstrom, his site has been growing in popularity lately. His readers doesn't necessarily have to be people posting on gaming boards.

It has been growing (somewhat), but it's at such an inconsequential traffic rank that it would be like saying your garage band's website is growing in popularity. At the pathetic level Malstrom's site is at, there aren't many places to go but up.

Malstrom's Traffic Rank: 512,120

And for comparison, the Vgchartz traffic rank: 6,727

So yeah, not too impressed.

Where's a reaction image and green text when I need it.

Seriously, your post makes no sense as your saying he's not that popular yet his traffic rate is better then the site you are compairing. Not the best plan you've ever had, that's for sure. Plus, I think he's popular enough when something Miyamoto says immidiatly goes to Malstrom.

I dunno, I'd get one for your incredible fail, but they are so hard to find.

Please, only talk about things you understand. Save yourself some embarrassment.

Reading the article: I came upon this little blurb:

What an arrogant old man.

Oh snap, Malstrom! It's on! No one insults my Shiggy-Shiggy-Cocoa-Puff like that and gets away with it.

I DUNNO, seems sales isnt important in Japan right now since console makers there arent battling with each other but for gamers disinterest. Seems Japan already imploded and the audience arent interest in gaming right now. I even predicted before I became AWOL here that Japan will have a video game crash if 3rd parties didnt act together, support the Wii and save the industry and when they realized it its too late and it happened. Even Inafune admits it.

I think it will happen in NA too, since the same thing happened in japn are happening in NA too. I think I'll change my sig right now since my sig was outdated since it already happened. I think I just add it

end of core gaming days prediction:

E3 2006-The beginning of the end. Wii introduced

E3 2008- Armageddon. Wii motion plus introduced. Wii Music. Reggie says Animal crossing was a core game. Massive disappointment. many Wii core gamers selling their Wii.

E3 2010- Tape runs out

I find his concepts interesting sorry to offend you if at all. =(

(I give him clicks)

Taking this personally isn't part of business but being passionate isn't about personalization at least I haven't seen that conclusion. =/

I just dislike Malstrom, I have nothing against the people who read his stuff. Read away.

After my VGC Greatest User round is over, I may switch my avatar to something less intimidating.

I wonder why clicking on malstrom site was bad thing. There are benefits clicking on his site for one thing you'll know the latest gaming news without searching google for it and without forum members arguing
