Japanese hardware sales, Apr. 16 - Apr. 22: Exceedingly elite edition

Oh, you think that the Xbox 360 Meh-lite is the only expensive and meaningful upgrade to arrive this week? And you firmly believe that any wound can be healed by the application of the correct type of cheese? Allow us to inform you then, that at least 50% of your current beliefs are wildly incorrect. What you see before you, on your monitor, in the section of the screen that displays this paragraph, is the significantly improved and undeniably elite version of the Japanese hardware sales charts!

Harnessing the ludicrous power of HDMI 1.3, we've enhanced our presentation beyond the low-resolution limits of your imagination. You're bound to recoil in horror -- horror at how primitive our previous display method was, that is! Stop blinking and closely scrutinize the detail that you didn't even know was there.
