10% of PS2 owners also own a PS3.

MikeB will not be pleased... his "the PS3 will win because of PS2 owners and exclusive Final Fantasy XIII" argument isn't looking so great at the moment.

Why? I stated several times in the past that I believe a large percentage of GC and XBox owners also own PS2 systems. Let's say it would be 100% amongst XBox and GC owners. Then if amongst the PS3, Wii and 360 userbase previous ownership isn't 100%, those must be new users. The PS3 probably attracted some movie enthusiasts, the Wii attracted some new consumers, especially females and kids who own their first console.

So this seems to be less of a surprise to me than it is for you.
