I have no idea what that chart is really supposed to tell us. They say it’s based on mentions on the internet but how is that indicative of brand strength? It’s a biased sample!

You have a good eye. You know what ‘buzz’ is? It is game journalists blabbing. So this ‘buzz watch’ is putting into a chart as if their blabbing represented the reality of popularity.

Too bad this chart wasn’t around during the Gizmondo days. After the car accident and criminal roots, you would have thought Gizmondo would be the most popular brand of all!
