I don't think you're reading what I'm writing. No, those 1-6% inaccuracies aren't significant enough to preclude using their numbers as a rough approximation. As for the "adjustments", how drastic are these? Do you know/ Has anybody compiled any evidence? Based on how many people seem to be out to discredit them, SOMEBODY has to have done this. Because if they're NOT wildly inaccurate in general it hardly matters how they arrive at their numbers. And nobody has presented proof yet.


I just did. NPD pretty much stopped giving their numbers for free because VGChartz was stealing them.


That would suggest that either VGChartz's numbers are pretty close or that NPD's are wildly accurate. That does not in any way support the argument that VGChartz's numbers are off at all, much less so far off that they can't be used as a rough estimate as is being asserted.

When VGChartz sales figures were poor for Wii U, trolls defended the site.. now that VGChartz is showing good numbers the site is a joke.


No one has defended VGChartz.


Really?

When you copy something and claim it as your own, how is that being credible? You missed the whole point.

No, YOU missed the point. You were told to prove that the numbers weren't credible. If anything, you proved they were.

2.2 million sold and you didn't get a dime.
Text book reassurance. Just enjoy your purchase and stop counting money you'll never see.
