I assume Amazon only rates items sold on Amazon. If this is true, then it's not a good guage of console strength. A couple of months ago, I wanted to buy a Wii. I went to Amazon, and all I could find was $500.00 bundles for my $250.00 system. I REALLY wanted the Wii, but I (like many consumers) couldn't see buying $250.00 of stuff I didn't really want just so I could get the one thing I wanted to buy. I wound up driving four counties away and buying my Wii at retail. If Amazon sold each system at MSRP , I would consider them a valid source. As it is, it's just one site's info. It doesn't truly reflect anything in the industry.
