The 17% of US gamers being console gamers is pretty interesting, and goes a long way to show that the old NPD study stating that 3% of all "gamers" (inclusive of PC gamers) owned more than one next-gen console, actually means that 3/17 (~17.7%) of all console owners own more than one. Then again, you have to consider that a significant portion of that 17% don't even own a next-gen console yet, so the multi-ownership is actually even higher.
There's a gamasutra article that tries to spin that data with its headline, but I can't find the link. If you read the article closely, the spin is pretty blatant.
