My reason for citing this information from the August 2008 GI --
-- if a magazine put out by a company that sells video games is seeking to see who owns what, then they must be comparable products and in competition for the same consumer dollars.
Notice that handhelds (PSP, DS) or cellphones (iPhone, LG, etc.), were not included. Nor were consoles from previous generations (PS2, Xbox, GC) or computers (PC, Mac).
An HD console and a Wii can be considered to be complementary by an owner. But from a market perspective, they are all video game consoles.

 I am Mario.I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble. Wii Friend Code: 1624 6601 1126 1492 NNID: Mike_INTV |
