MS and Nintendo sell their consoles at a profit so it effects them less. Since Sony is losing money on every console sold and they are the most expensive console it effects them more.
A $300 60 Gb 360 Microsoft loses $75 in US exchange
A $400 80 Gb PS3 Sony loses $100 in US exchange
A $250 Wii Nintendo loses $62.50 in US exchange
It increases Sony's loses dramatically.
