October Trends PS4 sizzles, while Halo fizzles, and Wii-U remains constant.

It was the emulation news that was the biggest deal. Nintendo N64 emulation news for Android doesn't feel right as the most discussed item for the Wii-U. Nintendo has the longest (and dare I say best?) back catalog, so emulation news really skews things. If you put "Nintendo Wii-U" than Wii-U would have included that.

Glad I can help. Suprisingly the amount of "I got a new Nintendo" topics is almost non-existant without the abbreviation, so it works out.

I get what the method is. Pretty cool. 

Have you considered simply putting "new wii" or "wii" in reference to the Wii U? I know of examples of people doing this, specifically non-gamers. 

The difference is that most of the added results about Wii are about emulation through dolphin. Looking at the peaks I saw 0 of the top being about the Wii-U that wouldn't be included using Wii U, so that would create innaccurate data. Even though all the top discussed "new wii" were about the original Wii or had Wii U in it and would have been inlcuded, it's so insignificant that it becomes a way to pad numbers and nothing more. As you can tell the padding isn't going to do much.

See you all next month!
