@mikeslemonade Considering his numbers are wrong and misleading much more than they are actually correct, I don't see why anyone would use the site for anything other than fanboy pissing matches.
VGChartz isn't very reputable as a source. The owner has been caught countless times fudging numbers and then stealthily fixing them when the real numbers come out.
So he's acting like a fanboy? They come in all sizes, I guess.
That isn't allowed here, apparently, as evident by so many kneejerk reactions in every "controversial" article comment section.
Well, a 10/10 isn't perfection on our score system. It just means it's a really masterful game with very minor flaws, if any at all.
A rumor of a responding to a rumor? Is this time for an "Inception" joke?

In the second to last pargraph:
"Nintendo is one of the few publishers who doesn't just market to the 18-35 year-old demographic, and seeing it struggle is disheartening to me. Some of us in our hobby don't want every game to be all guns and/or gore. That's not to say Sony, Microsoft, and others only churn out these types of games."
Please read better next time before arguing against something I never said.
The article is hardly even about the sales (read: it's not about sales). It's about the reaction to the underperforming Japanese sales from people finding enjoyment from it. Read the article instead of giving a kneejerk reaction to the headline.
It simply shows how unprepared Nintendo was for HD development. They had seven years to see other developers talk about how difficult it was, yet they didn't prepare well enough. It's total incompetence.
The Wii died prematurely not because it was a fad, but because Nintendo basically dropped support on it, only releasing a select few standout titles post-2010.
How many points does Microsoft get for said achievement for their GamerScore?
If you're going to call something "retarded" you should learn how to spell it. There's some kind of irony here...
The 50,000 regards the NPD (U.S. sales) of last month.
For some reason in the West, handheld games don't usually get nominated for GOTY. No matter how good they are. :(
"Human embargo laws do not apply to robots."
The review is appreciated, but good luck getting any more review copies legitimately from Nintendo.
No.
edit: At least they shouldn't.
This is a common type of post when any site makes a post that criticizes another company.
"Oh, you must be a Sony fan."
"Oh, you must be a Nintendrone."
Or whatever. We're apparently fanboys of Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo. Lord knows we've been called each with each new opinion piece.
You're trying too hard.
Nintendo has stamps (achievement-like goals) for games like Nintendo Land and Wii Sports, so it's a natural evolution, really.
13 1/2, you big meanie!
I kid, of course (about the age part, not you being a big meanie). :P
Hopefully you read the article, as I explain why it's not the smartest option. :)
