Japanese hardware sales, Nov. 16 - Nov. 22: Rapid expansion edition

This is just getting ridiculous. It seems like every week now we see a new contender added to the Japanese sales chart. Remember? Remember the beginning of the month, how simple everything was? Seven platforms. Seven arrows. Seven percentile figures. With today's addition of the super-magnified DSi LL, we're now up to nine platforms. In addition to being a much less appealing number (unless you're a Beatle), it's incrementally increased the amount of time we have to spend compiling each chart . That's twenty precious, valuable seconds we'll never see again.

To compensate for the increased labor that goes into making the charts, we guess we'll subtract some of the usual work ethic that goes into the text of these posts. Hope you don't mind. Man, that DSi LL sold a bunch, didn't it? Man. Sure sold real good. PS2 didn't, though. Too bad about that.

- DSi LL: 100,553 (New Entry!)
- PS3: 34,752
