Hi guys, Seece put work in cooking up numbers for us in the latest article on last year's pre orders.
Looking at the numbers, I wanted to take a different angle at the numbers, looking at them by exclusives and divided by platform. The reason is, as you and I can tell, the chart is filled with multi-plat entries. So, I bundled the multi-plats together and the exlusives together.
Leave any comments below, thanks for reading.
