A consensus has been found to indicate that VGChartz is a bad source for this list, as it does not have actual sales figures or professional estimates. |

What about remakes of Pokémon games and what about this source. https://vgsales.fandom.com/wiki/Pok%C3%A9mon
- Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. Also that source itself would not be considered reliable as it is user generated Cannolis (talk) 12:19, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
I think what they are saying is like gen 1 + yellow + remake + let's go.
Oh i think there is one pokemon game missing and thats gen 5 as the combined sales of black and white + black 2 and white 2 pushes it over — Preceding unsigned comment added by 158.135.164.131 (talk) 02:58, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
Dark Souls.
Dark Souls should be some where on this list, at roughly 30th-ish place. Dark Souls 1 has sold approximately 25 million copies, and the remaster has sold 27 million copies, several games on the list don't match those numbers. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:8800:2093:8200:5D7C:509E:5F9B:97C7 (talk) 22:49, 12 March 2022 (UTC)
- Please provide a reliable source of sales announcement. Not an estimate or anything like Steam Spy. -- ferret (talk) 00:18, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
List is very outdated
When will the list be updated? It seems to be missing a lot of newer games that have sold 30-40 million and more. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.47.43.228 (talk) 20:22, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
Which games? Uvarajie (talk) 21:37, 25 March 2022 (UTC)

Witcher 3
CD Projekt published updated numbers. Witcher 3 has sold 40 mln copies. They don't specify how they count expansions, but they didn't specify it last time either. Sources: PDF presentation (page 9), PDF transcript of the conference, Twitter. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Moss Arrow (talk • contribs) 20:10, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
Terraria
Terraria appears to be on over 44 million copies now. Source is a recent trailer released on youtube by the developers ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mlPhhWm5_A ), which states in the beginning of it that over 44 million copies have been sold. If someone has the time, please verify this and update the page
