Yep, awesome Ioi. Really, very nice, very useful.

 

Two suggestions: first, as already mentioned, it would be nice to have the option not to display one of the systems on the graph. Second, I think you should change the PS3's bar color from lime green: it's not necessarily ugly, but it just so happens to be the Xbox's theme color, and it constantly confused me even once I understood what is going on. 


You do realize you can put any console on any line right? So the color is not representive of a particular console/company, just whatever is selected in that box.

Forgive me if I'm out of touch but... I think the N64 sold a little more than just 5 million...

 EDIT

Nevermind about the GC statement. It's probably because "Other" isn't included. Still, I would have thought that EU would have bought more than 4-5 million GC's...



By life end:

  • Wii- 100 million+
  • Xbox360- 35~40 million
  • PS3- 30 million
  • PSP- 30~32 million ------------- FAILURE
  • NDS- 85~90 million (Skeptical)  - FAILURE
  • NDS- 100 million+ (Optimistic) -- Success!

 Nope, I didn't notice that. Problem solved. Thanks!

a small problem: if i want to compare GB, PS3 and Xbox 360 without align launches, it bugs

Not sure how it would impact server traffic, but it would be great to have a "mini" version of the chart on the main page (cached?) - aligned launches (or maybe not?), and also one for handhelds. (even a mini-mini version, acting as a link to the chart generation page).

Ohh yeah - one more request. Be *awesome* have to an option that shows market share for each console/line, rather than sales (i.e. graph (100*x)/(x+y+z)). I think that would paint a seriously accurate picture of what is going on :))
