Staying Power Index:
[(previously released titles) / (total previously released titles)] * 100
The Staying Power Index defines platform software “Staying Power” as the ratio of a platform’s previously released ranking titles to all the platforms’ previously released ranking titles combined.
Simply put, it’s the power of the titles that stayed in the charts: hence Staying Power.
Super Staying Power Index:
[(past-years released titles) / (total ranking titles)] * 100
The Super Staying Power Index defines platform software “Super Staying Power” as the ratio of a platform’s past-years released ranking titles to all of the 50 charting titles combined.
Simply put, it’s the power of the titles that came out last year and even the years before for a platform. I think it’s safe to say that a title would need some super appeal to staying in the charts for so long in such a windy industry as videogames: hence Super Staying Power.
Momentum Index:
[(mean rank change) + (total brand-new titles) – (out-charted titles) + (re-charted titles)]
The Momentum Index defines platform software “Momentum” as the average momentum of a platform’s ranking software opposed to the number of brand-new releases with a malus for each of the platform’s out-charted titles and a bonus for each of its re-charted titles.
Simply put, it’s the momentum of all of a platform’s titles, all things considered: Momentum, plain and simple.
Super Momentum Index:
[(Momentum Index) * (Staying Power Index)]
The Super Momentum Index defines platform software “Super Momentum” as the Momentum of a platform when adjusted to its Staying Power.
Simply put, it’s how good or how bad a platform’s momentum truly is: Super Momentum, just like Super Mario.
