NPD recently released statistical data relating to PS2 owners. Specifically, the question was: if you own a PS2, do you own any current generation systems? The breakdown was as follows.

10% of PS2 owners also own a PS3.
18% of PS2 owners also own a 360.
19% of PS2 owners also own a Wii.

There can be overlap here: for example, someone who owns a PS2, PS3, and Wii would be counted in both categories. Still, it certainly discourages the notion that there are legions of PS2 fans waiting to upgrade to a PS3, when the PS3 has thus far been the least popular choice for PS2 owners when upgrading, and by a wide margin.

Called it. No one wanted to believe me when i was talking about it earlier. Even with europe it seems fairly obvious that more Wii owners own PS2's then PS3 owners.

Booyah.

Well ok, a lot of people believed me and the numbers i put forth based on lifecycles... just people who still think the PS3 will win the generation disagreed.
