That's probably what it is. Still, it may not be as costly as it seems. I mean, this is a magazine and they are able to get numbers weekly. In the age of Patreon, it may be possible to set something up like this if we know how they do it. 

For the first time in three months, it's Chart Time!

As stated earlier, I used the figures that were from the #1 predictors in the Era hardware prediction threads. Except for one, they all are within or right on the cusp of the estimates provided by Herlock, so I left what I had without changing them (the exception was the August figure for the XBO, which I bumped up from 90k to 100k). The first chart's resolution is 1 pixel ≈ 5200 units, so there is probably an error of anywhere from one to three pixels for most figures over the past three months. For other non-cumulative charts, the margin of error in pixels will be larger or smaller depending on how large the numbers on the vertical axis are. Charts with cumulative sales may also have small multi-pixel margins of error.

Well, enough with the caveats. Let's get on with it.

I may post some more charts later.
