I enjoy hearing about this process, also I like that you decided to go with the Americas. I think it was the right choice.
Personally, I've been keeping track of all your estimate articles, with focus on the Nintendo Switch (and recently over the past two years with Xbox Series and PS5). And your estimates have been almost spot on (+/- 80,000 on average once the official Nintendo Earnings are released, this last one in September was off by 44,023 units on the lower end [which is rather impressive]).
I do rather miss the weekly figures (I enjoyed seeing the numbers climb), and love reading Japan's weekly figures, but I also like seeing how much you enjoy it doing it so I'm fine with the monthly figures and enjoy seeing how much those numbers are (and appreciate you adding in the weekly reports in the same article). Im just here along for the ride counting the units and having fun. Thank you.
