The second image is the raw data, the third linear fit coefficients, the fourth RMS error.
Replying to @chinesenintendo
Some explanations:Sun Nov 11 06:32:39 +0000 2018
1. The t values are the days from the console's launch on Dec 5, 2017.
So t=0 on 12/05/17, t=1 on 12/06/17, etc. Today is 11/10/18, or t=340.
Replying to @chinesenintendo
2. For those who are unfamiliar with MATLAB, the first term in the linear fit is the slope, and the second is the y-intercept.Sun Nov 11 06:35:08 +0000 2018
So for instance, linear_fit_twipri = [4.2351,1.9633e+03] means the linear fit is the line:
y = 4.2351 * x + 1963.3
Replying to @chinesenintendo

Makes sense. From what I know, there isn't a big fan base of Smash Bros. in China, and I highly doubt if any diehard fans of the series in China are willing to pirate the game. So the less professional streamers are probably more interested in story mode than the game mechanics.Sun Nov 25 23:51:51 +0000 2018
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Nintendo Switch bundle to release in Hong Kong and Taiwan on Dec 13th.Mon Nov 26 07:27:11 +0000 2018
Judging from the box, and the fact that there's no eShop in Taiwan yet, the bundled game is most likely to be a PHYSICAL copy.

There are differences, but very minimal. The Hong Kong version doesn't have the Taiwanese rating symbol, and the upper right sticker is also slightly different. https://twitter.com/LW201712/status/1067090331424894976Mon Nov 26 23:13:23 +0000 2018
