Showing the share of total software sales accounted for by the home and portable markets in Japan using Famitus's software pie chart.  This probably goes back to the DS/PSP launch.

And here a representation of hardware sales (Media Create) from the same period.  You can see that as PS2 slowed down the portables took more of the whole, but PS3/Wii pushed back a bit.  Wii launch week is that console spike to 60-something percent.

Comet Holmes reminded me of the Final Fantasy VII logo, so I combined it with text in a pseudo-FF font.

I don't remember the initial source, but someplace was claiming to have doctored pictures showing what celebrities would look like with further age.  It looked like they were just stretched, though, so I just further stretched it to show even older age.

Using Famitsu hardware numbers, this shows how home console and portable sales changed from year to year.  Basically showing that the percentage changes as seen a few images up were more due to portables getting huge than consoles being very down.

Rather than doing a "Wii versus early PS2" comparison, this is a "Wii versus early DS" comparison.  Wii Sports was soooo much bigger than anything early on DS.

Ha.  Ha!  Santa.

Why did I turn Phil Ken Sebben into Santa Claus?  I do not remember.

When PS3 had a boost due to new games and price drop,we had both a weekly number and a single-day number for the big day.  Putting those together, it seemed like the rest of the week had to have been pretty low.  I showed one way it could've gone, with the week ending in basically "normal" condition.

I believe this was using Famitsu's software pie yet again.  First there's the actual values DS and PSP had.  "Pseudo-PSP" takes the DS number and adjusts for the userbase difference.

And here the same on the console side, where "Pseudo-PS3" is Wii adjusted downward for the hardware userbase difference.
