I know everyone says its run by sheep, but really

how can they justify updating the Wii's sales every week and leaving the 360 where it was 3 months ago?!!

are they just trying to add fuel to the fire over here?

Don't trust that site. One day i checked the 360 sales, and it said 9.74 mil. Then i checked a week later, and it said 9.71 !

So it went DOWn 0.03mil ...that's kinda funny, isn't it ? It just proves that vgchartz is bulls***

Who cares about some site that's only known by a few fools on System Wars? Honestly, who cares.

I don't even get caring about sales in general.... but taking it so far that you start caring about a no-name sales estimation site.... that's pretty sad.

It's annoying hearing people claim that the Wii is catching up so quickly - 7+ mil to 10 mil

the wii has been selling units while the 360 sells zero

Why does it bother you, do you work PR for Microsoft?

360 isn't going to start getting less great games because of what VG Charts reports or Wii's actual sales. Look at the PS3, its sales are in the gutter and even though it doesn't have the strongest library right now it has some awesome, awesome games on the horizon.

There's enough out there for all three companies to survive and give us the game we want to play, so who cares? Those sorts of System Wars arguments and talking points are all smoke, they have absolutely no impact on anything outside of this forum.

As unreliable as a VGchartz is the information for past sales is accurate they just screw up future sales with their estimates.

It would appear people forgot when Microsoft Announced 10 million shipped they still only had around 8 million sales. The reason they havent Passed 10 million sold is cause quite frankly they havent sold 10 million.

Fact is Microsoft til March 08 only intends to ship 3 million consoles worldwide. Thats pitiful amount they know sales have slowed and they knew they had 2 million units already in the buffer to sell.
