I feel like i should be mad that he insinuates i have no books on my bookshelves, but i actually don't god dammit, but thats more to do with the fact im a Kindle guy.

i have comic books. :P calvin and hobbes ftw!!

OT - of course sony is picking off ex-xbox fans. most gamers have no loyalty. anyone thinking xbox (or sony or nintendo) has more than ~10M loyal fans is blinded by wishful thinking.

I'd argue that Nintendo has about 20M. Xb has about 30m and Playstation has about 50m.

you'd be wrong.

nintendo is easily disproven. at this rate wiiU won't hit 20M. playstation is easily disproven. psvita. xbox is easily disproven. xbone.

You think Wii U or Xbone is done selling? And a handheld is the best you got?

I really can't imagine any Wii gamer last gen moving to PS4 this gen.

Xbox 360 is completely understandable though.

Most of them have most to smart devices.

I can. A bunch of people who don't game got the Wii. I can imagine that some of those people actually ended up getting into gaming in general because of that. Hell my best friend was one of those people except his wife constantly hounding him about playing games shut that down. He's one of those guys who basically lets women run his life. If it wasn't for his wife though I could have seen him moving from the Wii (which he got for his kids really) and getting a PS4.

Well so about 50% of PS4 owners had a PS3 and the rest didn't... that would make PS4 twice the size of PS3 and match my prediction of 160M PS4 at the end of gen.

I had a Wii and 360 last gen.

I ended up hating them both, but the 360 was at least serviceable and had a fantastic controller. Funnily enough I still don't have a PS3. Maybe next pricedrop.
